It seems that as each new, year begins to unfold, it carries a theme. My theme for 2010 is leadership. I truly believe that a big part of God's purpose for me in this year is to hone and sharpen my leadership.
To that end I am reading some great stuff on the subject and came across the following. In Dan Allender's book, "Leading with a Limp", he writes about counting the cost of leadership which includes six realities: crisis, complexity, betrayal, loneliness, weariness and glory. I invite you to consider this quote:
"God pours out enough of His presence to keep us hooked. And God allures us to the point we want to know how the next episode of the story will turn out. God is playing out His plot, and reluctant and limping servants, while being humbled as leaders, are lifted up to see His glory."
It would be wonderful to get some discussion going around the subject of leadership in 2010. Feel free to comment.
