Lead Like Jesus: 21 Days of LeadershipIsampula

Lay Down Your Life

Jesus’ call to lay down our lives to serve others is very clear. He gave His life for us and gave His life to us so that we can live our lives serving others like He did. How has Jesus worked in your life? Where have you experienced life in the place of death, forgiveness instead of judgment, power where once there was weakness? How can you help others experience newfound confidence and capability in their lives and work? What would it look like to lay down your life for others today?

This is my commandment: Love each other in the same way I have loved you. There is no greater love than to lay down one’s life for one’s friends.—John 15:12-13

Prayer: Jesus, thank You for giving Your life for us and for giving us life through Your Spirit. As You lived to serve, I want to live my life to serve. In your name, let me bring life, forgiveness and power to others today. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
