The Most Excellent Way To Leadഉദാഹരണം

 Am I Giving It My Best?

If someone special comes over for dinner, you don’t start pulling the leftovers out of the fridge. You go all out to give them your absolute best. 

God gave us His very best when He sent Jesus to the cross, and God calls us to give our best to Him as well. 

I once heard a football player say, “the separation is in the preparation.” The reason his team was winning was because they prepared the best they could for each game. What set them apart from other teams wasn’t their facilities or their skill, but their preparation. 

The same is true for us. The separation between good and great organizations is the preparation people are willing to put into doing the absolute best they can do. Organizations that anticipate great things prepare for greater things. 

Sitting around wanting something great for yourself, your company, or your church is not a bad thing; in fact, it can be the fuel that sets the vision in your heart on fire.  However, many times it’s not a lack of vision that holds us back from achieving  maximum potential, but rather our lack of execution.  

There will never be a day when we don’t have a next step to take in our walk with Jesus or in our roles as leaders. We don’t have to be perfect, but we should work hard, learn as much as we can, and THEN trust God to make up the difference. 

We cannot effectively lead people long term if we are not dedicated to increasing our leadership capacity. As long as we are learning, we are growing. When you stop growing as a leader, you begin dying as one.

Are you honestly and sincerely giving your best effort in what the Lord has called you to lead? 

What steps are you taking to increase your own knowledge and leadership capacity?
