There he stayed, and many people came to him.

John 10

There he stayed, and many people came to him. v40-41

I have recently been assisted by the Holy Spirit in my understanding of leadership - specifically in terms of me being the spiritual leader of the household.  Bottom line, people were drawn to follow Jesus because of who He was, including what He said.  I certainly cannot expect what I say to be enough for people to follow me.  It's what I do AND say!  This may seem like a no-brainer but I notice more and more how I am out of alignment with regards to who I am and who I need to be to have my family follow me.

My Prayer: Lord Jesus, You are the ultimate leadership coach - and of course my God and the greatest gift of all time.  You bless me well beyond what I deserve.  I am full of anger, lust, selfishness, impatience, etc.  Thank You that You love me anyway but please forgive me Jesus.  Help me turn from such sin and towards You.  Help me love You with all of my heart, soul, mind, and strength.  Help me love others as myself and help me grow in my faith.
