Deep Thoughts

I was just thinking deeper …

What if I was told my life here on earth would be but a brief span? What would I do now?

How would I live every moment?

I guess, I will live like I never hated a single soul.

I wouldn’t fail to lift another person up even I have no ounce of strength left.

I would make sure I nurse a sick person the best I could if I was feeling weak myself

I would cheer up another person even if I felt like crying that moment

I would feed another hungry soul even if I felt total emptiness

I would give another person the support she needed even if I wished all my life for someone’s support

I would be your best friend even if I have lost many

I would give my all to ease your hurt and pain, wipe that tear, calm your fears and anxiousness, cheer you on, pray with you, even if in my lifetime no one ever did that to me

I would  look into the eye of every soul I meet in college and church and silently thank God for bringing you into my life

No matter what I’ve been through, you’ll never fail to have my smile

 

What counts that moment in time is not what others have done or what I’ve been through

but all that matters is

 the joy,  fulfillment and the comfort of knowing you have lived life being that Someone to others.

 

Depressing as it may sound but its a humble reality of life

I’m trying to accomplish these things.

Leadership – A New Perspective

Leadership to me is more of a responsibility rather than a high position or some sort of priviledge to be heading something.

For me… I’ve never been really declared a LEADER.. though I’m in Bible School, a pastor’s kid, someone people all know in the church but still I am not given position on a silver spoon. Till now i’m am just serving in whatever given to me.. Nothing big or significant maybe not even leading people or a given a group of people to lead…

I’m not like some people whom their names will always go up the list when it comes to leadership positions. I may not even be officially selected or officially trained to be a “leader-to-be”.

Plain and simple.. I’m just being trained sometimes with no promises of any position from anywhere. I’m just trained because of what I know as the call to be His servant. Ask me if i do get envious or jealous of people whose names just fly up the list when it comes to being a leader or people who come into Bible school with already a goal to be trained and go back and lead in some specific department or ministry???  Yes sometime i honestly do get discouraged and i ask God where am i heading to. Why isn’t there a specific goal prepared for me or a specific direction to where i’m heading?

Somehow.. after the Global Leadership Summit, one thing for me is clear. The call is clear..the adventure is clear.

The road may not be clear, opportunities and open doors may not come easy and swift, my name may not always be up the leadership list, neither will i always be given the chance to lead or even be known as a leader, I may feel inadequate being in a conference of all leaders and people who leads in someway.

But I was still encouraged that is the adventure of following God and His plan that should be my focus. It may never be glamorous or recognized in my entire lifetime but I want to be a leader to everyone i meet. When i say leader i mean – EXAMPLE. i want to reflect exemplary values. I dont have to wait to be a leader of a great ministry or a leader of a youth group to start learning leadership skills. If i can be a leader to everyone I meet by being a godly example; I count that all joy

Thank God for a new perspective of LEADERSHIP!!
