So I am a leader. Must be 'built it' because it happens always. I am present... I lead.
Lots of times I've led myself or others very... poorly, harshly, controllingly. Yet at other times, with God's grace and help, I've led myself and others... lovingly, wisely, and joyfully.
Why would anyone follow me?
"...follow me AS I follow Christ..." You'll find this in Corinthians. (go looking - see what else you discover)
'As I...'
When I am on track following Jesus...
At moments that He is clearly leading...
As I... follow Christ.
That's someone worth following - someone that is following Christ.
And that's the only way it's worth following me too. 'As I follow Christ.'
NOTE: I haven't blogged in a long time. Not sure I'll upgrade to any more often. But I hope each time I do, it's an encouragement and a challenge to you as you seek to follow Christ with greater devotion.
