LEAD LIKE JESUS
Jesus turned the theory of leadership upside down. He taught His disciples, who were arguing about who would rise to leadership, that the path to greatness in God’s economy was downward, not upward. Jesus was the model of the Servant Leader. He led by service. Washing feet, feeding the hungry, healing the sick, teaching the ignorant– this is how Jesus led. And this is how He still expects us to lead. Leadership is stewardship. In God’s economy, it is entrusted to those who will lead like Jesus.
PRAYER: Dear Father, we are in awe of Your love for us. For You have sent Your Son Jesus to die for our sins that we might be saved. We are in awe of You. Help us to be servant leaders like Your Son. For when we humble ourselves, You have promised to lift us up. In Jesus’ name, amen.
