PRAYER
Everyone depends on
the leader for
answers. “Where do we
go next ? “
What”s our GOAL ?”
“Should we move
ahead or wait ? It”s
the leader who
must make the
decisions , sometimes
choosing between the
greater or two
goods or the
lesser ot two
evils. Effective leaders have
learned this secret
of leadership : they are
not alone. When forced
to make tough
choices , they seek
the counsel of
the One greater
than themselves . They seek
the guidance of
GOD.
COMPETENCE , SKILL
, and INTELLIGENCE ---- all of
these are important attributes
for leadership.But there
is one greater :
FAITH. Truly great leaders
believe in Someone
greater than themselves , and they
express that BELIEF
in regular times
of REFLECTION and
DEVOTION.
Their
times of PRAYER
signify a SPIRITUAL
relationship with ALMIGHTY
that makes them
feel ACCEPTED and
LOVED, even when their
associates or peers
have abandoned them.
To them ,
PRAYER is not
a way out . It
is a way
through. The STRENGHT
that is derived
from COMMUNICATION with
GOD sustains them
through times of
ADVERSITY.
“ A LEADER NEVER
LETS ADVERSITY GET
HIM DOWN ---EXCEPT ON HIS KNES. “ -----Jim Williams.
