Value of Today…

The Leadership Project is designed to invest in future of leadership. When we implement several areas into our daily approach to leadership, we build on our investment.

Pray…
Look at the goal…
Share the plan…
Help someone…
Read, grow, learn personally…
Take a few minutes for yourself…
Listen closely…
Rest…

We may insert a variety of activities throughout the day, but never let a day go by without making each of these a part of your life. It is an investment with imperishable returns.

Leadership is Needed…

Consider a thought expressed by Lao Tzu, “Go to the people. Learn from them. Live with them. Start with what they know. Build with what they have. The best of leaders when the job is done, when the task is accomplished, the people will say we have done it ourselves.”

Leadership of this nature will…

Build confidence in others.
Strengthen the focus of the group.
Accomplish more and greater overall good.
Leave a legacy into eternity.
Know more people will reach heaven because of their leadership.

Leadership is needed. Will we step up and do our part?

Love to Lead…

Life is too short to work at something we hate. Additionally, when we love what we do it never feels like work.

This does not mean we never experience problems or challenges, even in a job we love. However, when we love what we do, the difference is noticeable.

Regardless of our career choice, nothing holds more value than leading others to Christ. There is no greater opportunity or privilege than changing someone’s eternal destination of others.

When our relationship with God makes a difference for others, we know the love to lead.

Great Leaders…

Wandering in desert places does not appeal to most. Yet, many leaders wander because lack the vision to lead people in the direction they ought to go, and this is their role.

Rosalynn Carter said, “A leader takes people where they want to go. A great leader takes people where they don’t necessarily want to go, but ought to be.”

We need great leaders in the home, our world, and the church. Too many only take people where they want to go. Let us arise to the challenge and become the great leaders God requires in every area of life.

The Great Need…

Never forget, “We can’t make it on our own.” We need God and each other. 

The vital role of leaders cannot be overstated. People are hurting; they lack joy in their lives; they struggle to find answers.

Our spiritual families assemble because they need and want help. They desire a message to help them deal with the pain of life.

We must always remember the necessity of helping others. It may be a friend or a family member. When they seek help, let us lead them to the only One who can ease their pain, Jesus.
