Leadership

The inauguration yesterday prompts me to reflect on the word "Leadership,"which we'll do today and tomorrow. I don't recall where I heard the following paragraph. Can't give credit where it is due.


Perspective on Leadership: Leadership is not a place, it's not a position. Leadership is a relationship between those who aspire to lead and those who choose to follow. Leadership involves those who guide others through adversity, uncertainty, hardship, change, transition, recovery, new beginnings, and whatever challenges us to give our best. LaoTzu said, "A good leader is one who talks little; and when the work is done and the goal fulfilled, followers will say - "we did it ourselves." Dr. Kenneth Sylvester

My objective for this blogsite is that all who read it will be harnessed to the power of the ultimate leader, the Holy Spirit, so that no matter the circumstances, life’s painful times will be processed with Him resulting in, “the process was painful but the product, powerful. Through the Holy Spirit’s empowerment, we successfully finished the race.” "Glory be to God who by His mighty power at work within us is able to do far greater than our human mind can understand..." Ephesians 3:20

Some thoughts tomorrow on leadership.
