I wanted to start a thread on Leadership. It's something that's really lacking nowadays and I've received several great books that I frequently revisit to help me continue to improve each and every day. One of them is "The Maxwell Leadership Bible" which has leadership quotes & suggestions for each day of the year. Here's one for May 29:

*Guide the Way*

I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will guide you with My eye.
Psalm 32:8

God does not expect leaders to be perfect, but to be whole. To have integrity means to be whole, as in a whole number (an "integer"). Despite their human frailties, leaders can effectively guide those who follow.

This scripture reminds us that leaders must closely observe the flock for its needs and problems. God expects spiritual leaders to serve as guides. A guide takes a person or group safely to a planned destination. The Hebrew words for "guide" gives us several clues as to what God expects from those He uses as leaders.


* A guide is a spiritual head who unites and directs people in their walk with God.
* A guide takes people on the straight path that leads to fellowship with God.
* A guide gives accurate and godly counsel to those who need it.
* A guide leads with gentleness and trustworthiness, making others feel safe.
* A guide bases his or her direction on the Spirit and Word of God.



*Copied from The Maxwell Leadership Bible

Now I don't expect you all to be "spiritual leaders" in the sense that Maxwell is talking about. However, these same principles apply to each of you as a business leader, or a family leader, or a friend leader. You have a responsibility to help guide those who follow you, whether it be in business, at home, or with friends, to a planned destination. How powerful would it be for you to be seen as an example of how a person should live their life for your team, your wife & kids and your friends? Take a moment to reflect on the positive impact you've already had on countless people in your life; and think about how your actions at this very moment, and through the rest of this day, will inspire others around you.

This day is yours to do good with...will you rise to the challenge?
