Taking on the role of a leader is as simple, and as challenging, as responding to the opportunities God places before us. These opportunities may be scheduled, or occur unexpectedly; they may involve guiding, challenging, correcting, or encouraging others. To lead like Jesus is to view any time as an opportunity to let God work through us. What opportunities will you have to lead today? Will you step up and take on the role of a leader, or will you shrink back and lose the opportunity to make a difference?
Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all people, especially to those who belong to the family of believers.—Galatians 6:10
Prayer: Lord, thank You for the opportunities that today holds. Large or small, we offer them to You. We want to embrace every opportunity to be a reflection of Jesus, humbly depending on the power of Your Spirit to work in and through us. In Jesus’ name we pray, amen.
