Servanthood vs Leadership

You can accomplish anything in life, provided that you do not mind who gets the credit
-Harry S. Truman

Servant is my identity... Lead is what i do...
-Dr. A.R. Bernard

“Sitting down, Jesus called the Twelve and said, "If anyone wants to be first, he must be the very last, and the servant of all.”- Mark 9:35

Powerful yet impactful thoughts and words...

prestige? glory? honor? power?

i guess many a times the perception people have regrading leadership...
but really, this is not the case... as servants of the Lord, we are called to serve
in whatever capacity it may be in... regardless of leading a group of people, or
sweeping the floor, or washing the toilet...

What we regards as a prestigious job, might not be deemed so by God as he have
his own standards of judgment... i guess obedience to what He wants us to do is definitely
better then our perception of "ideal" or "best" job.

Obedience is better than sacrifice...

Just something that we must be reminded once again... to obey...
