Leadership is service


For even the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many.
Mark 10:45 KJV

To lead is to serve and not be served. Leadership is service. Jesus, the Son of man did not come to be served but to serve and to give his life as a ransom for many in service. Christ died once and for all. Everyone following Jesus will at one point in time need to make some personal sacrifices while serving others.  Should we then be afraid to serve because it will demand the very best from us? Absolutely not, we are to give our best as unto God. Do unto others as you will have others do unto you.

Leadership is not title and positions but showing compassion and providing guide to others when they need it. People will appreciate genuine care and service but this should not be the basis for abuse. Parents serve their children and children when they have grown up should take care of their parents. Military serve the nation and sometimes give their lives in service. Having a team spirit is essential in every organization and the leadership should give everyone a chance to serve and to contribute.
