Are You Being The Leader God Created You To Be or Are You Just Being Agreeable To Everything Everyone Says and Does?

EVERYTHING is not okay.   You have to distinguish right from wrong and good from bad.    There is a difference.   Being agreeable to everything everyone does is not right and it does not help the world we live in today.   Being agreeable gives no guidance and it gives no direction.   We have to become the leaders that God created us to be.   

There are many leaders in many capacities.   Parents are leaders, pastors are leaders, teachers are leaders, and we can be leaders within our peer groups.   The main job of a leader is to give direction.    When we look at the children today, there are noticeable differences in their levels of respect and what they view as right and wrong.    Many of them have not been raised with a distinguishable line that defines right and wrong for them.   Parents of old were very clear.   They were clear about what was right and what was wrong and if you chose what was wrong, they enforced the consequences that came along with making the bad choices.    We have to understand we live and we die by the choices we make and every choice that we make brings with it consequences.   

When a baby is born, you wouldn’t leave that baby to fend for itself.   To get up and get their bottle on their own.  You get up and you get what the baby needs.   You feed them, change them, talk to them, and encourage them as they grow to walk and to talk.   Our guidance impacts not only what our children do and how they do it but it also impacts the people and the community around us.   Be the leader God has called you to be and understand, being a leader for God causes you to stand out and to go against the norm.

“And ye shall teach them your children, speaking of them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way, when thou liest down, and when thou risest up.”
