Good Morning: A Minimal Devotional

DAY 10 OF 31

Servant Leadership

Good morning.

I assume we can agree on the point that Jesus was simultaneously the greatest leader and servant while He lived on Earth. I don’t believe that to be coincidence. The more we empty, the more we are fulfilled. We were created to serve. The more we serve, the more trust and influence we’ll have with others, and therefore, the more effective and impactful our leadership will be.

More than anything, people care about how much we care. I know that society has made leadership about surface-level matters and personal status, but it’s about the Kingdom. Kingdom matters tend to be “upside down” from that we’re used to. Case in point: Positional leadership is for the benefit of self but servant leadership is always for the benefit of others. Kingdom leadership is not about gaining more followers, but rather serving people and developing other leaders.

What is one way you could serve someone today?
