Hey Guys…as I was doing my devotions this morning…I thought I would share with you some of my thoughts from it. In Galatians 6 Paul is talking about bearing and sharing burdens and taking responsibility. Responsibility always begins at the top…therefore leaders must lead the way. We must be ready to help restore others who’ve failed, guard against our own sin, help bear the burdens of others and at the end of the day stay humble. This should always be our approach and attitude. If not then we will always live in struggle because you can’t export what’s not been imported. In other words it’s hard to live and demonstrate a life that we’re not living. Here are a few questions that we need to be asking ourselves as leaders…
As leaders we need to be held accountable. Therefore we need to invite others in our life to ask us tough questions. Let the questions be an “alarm” to us to keep us on track.
- Is my personal walk with God up to date?
- Am I keeping my priorities straight?
- Am I asking myself the hard questions?
- Am I accountable to someone in authority?
- Am I sensitive to what God is saying to the whole body of Christ?
- Am I over-concerned with building my image?
- Do I put more stock in “events” rather than “process”?
- Am I a loner in my leadership and personal life?
- Am I aware and honest about my weaknesses?
- Is my calling constantly before me?
