life of faith

on leadership…

taken from John C. Maxwell (The Maxwell Leadership Bible)

security is found in Him, not in followers.

1. people cannot provide permanent security for a leader.

2. leaders should never put their emotional health in the hands of someone else.

3. spiritual and emotional health requires the truth.

4. leaders must remember that hurting people naturally hurt people.

5. trouble arises when leaders depend on people to do what only God can do.


this is just a reminder for those (including myself) who at times have felt the emotional lows when taking care of God’s flock. remember that there is nothing to lose even when we have given our all, because we find our security and restoration in Him.
