Daily Word (6.10.09)

By Example:

"I lead, and I am led by example." (DW, 6.10.09)

"Remember your leaders, those who spoke the word of God to you: consider the outcome of their way of life, and imitate their faith." (Heb. 13.7)

Mei Meditatio:

Leadership is always exalted. Leaders are teachers who instruct via example and followers are the students receptive to instruction. Leaders are often praised over and against followers. However, leaders would not be who they are without followers, and vice versa. In fact, in order to be a successful leader one also must also be able to follow. That is, the best teachers are those who are also willing to be open to learning.

God is already giving me the strength and wisdom to exercise humble and receptive leadership. Through the love of Christ working in my life, I lead and learn by example.

In the name and through the power of Jesus Christ, Son of God, Savior. Amen.
