Life, Light, and Love

04 Aug

Godly leaders manifest life, light, and love!

“… God is light and in Him is no darkness at all.” (1 John 1:5)

“He who does not love, does not know God, for God is love.” (1 John 4:8)

Three key words appear throughout the letters of John: life, light, and love. These are the qualities that Jesus Christ, the Leader of leaders embodies for His people. They are also the qualities a good leader breathes into his or her organization. Effective leaders love their people and relate well with them. They shed light on issues and the decisions that need to be made. And they breathe life into their family, home, and organization by their presence, their skills, and their character.

Leaders need not attempt great things, but good things done with great love.
There must be no disparity between our words and actions.
The power of any leader comes from the authority God gives him or her.
Godly leaders must be sources of love, light, and life.

Do you need to spend more time listening to the Word of life (Jesus)?

Dear Father, I praise You as the Source of all that is good and noble. Make me completely transparent so that Your life, Your light, and Your love may flow right through me into the lives of people I meet. Thank You Jesus! Amen.
