Learn, Develop, Do, Love
Both James and Peter write about taking action to grow in our faith and Christian character. In order to lead others well, we must first take actions to grow our faith and trust in God. Your leadership ability will then be founded on Biblical truths! The best!! #itsallintheBible
Peter writes in 2 Peter 1:5-8: “In view of all this, make every effort to respond to God’s promises. Supplement your faith with a generous provision of moral excellence, and more excellence with knowledge, and knowledge with self-control, and self control with patient endurance, and patient endurance with godliness, and godliness with brotherly affection, and brotherly affection with love for everyone.”
This is the best part: “The more you GROW like this, the more PRODUCTIVE and USEFUL you will be in your knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ!”
Start your development plan today! Center it around growing spiritually so that you can be productive and useful in everything you do – schedule your time with God each day, set alarms for prayers, spend less time in non value activities, etc. Keep working on your relationship with God and your ability to lead others will flow from your spiritual growth plan! Don’t wait!
