Walk Consistently

Leadership is not about power, position, or politics.  It's about walking with God and helping others do the same.

"Then the King will say to those on his right, 'Come, you who are blessed by my Father; take your inheritance, the kingdom prepared for you since the creation of the world. For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.'" (Matthew 25:34-36 NIV)

You can't hide a walk together with God.  Good deeds get noticed.  Kindness gets recognized.  Forgiveness is watched with doubting curiosity.  You can't hide a love for God.  People pay attention when you love your neighbor as yourself - even when you don't see it yourself.

"Then the righteous will answer him, 'Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink? When did we see you a stranger and invite you in, or needing clothes and clothe you? When did we see you sick or in prison and go to visit you?' "The King will reply, 'Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.' (Matthew 25:37-40 NIV)

A consistent walk is empowering.  So how about you?  Do you have a consistent walk?
