Bible Question: Why is it vital for a leader/staff member to be filled with passion/energy/excitement and a positive outlook?? |
Bible Answer: It isn't vital for a leader to be filled with anything except the Holy Spirit! Apart from Him, we can do nothing! No amount of passion, energy, excitement or positive outlook can compare to the activity of the Holy Spirit in the life of the believer. Without the presence or activity of the Spirit, our service or ministry is merely a work of the flesh. Perhaps we, as well as our leaders, need to be reminded of this! (This surely will take the pressure off us in one respect won't it?) Mommapbs |
