Leadership Encouragement God uses imperfect leaders to accomplish His perfect purposes. When I am faithful as a leader, God does what is good. The point of good and godly leadership is to make God look amazing, not me.

What’s My current Leadership need? Courage to Lead Take more initiative in my spiritual life and helping others Organize/plan more Make relationships a priority Be more responsible financially Trust teammates more by delegating Willing to Trust Pray more where I’ve trusted only my efforts Let go of something because I can’t do it all Let up on someone I’ve tried to control Relax and wait patiently for God to work after I’ve been faithful
