ANNOUNCEMENTS:
COT:
This past Sunday was Pentecost.
Some traditions associate with it include Wearing Red (symbolizes the fire of the Holy Spirit). Praying for Guidance: and Engaging in Fellowship: Participate in activities that promote unity and fellowship.
So I don’t know about wearing red, but the other two traditions I have absolutely immersed myself in this week. It’s been a challenging week, and as leaders, I think praying for guidance does a couple of things.
It indicates a willingness to be open to inspiration, comfort, and guidance, specifically from your Sky Q, but
–
this willingness can also trickle over into seeking guidance from others that you respect, tapping into others for inspiration and direction. The burden of leadership does not have to be borne alone.
–
And I think Engaging in Fellowship is also important for leaders. Sometimes being a leader feels very lonely. Sometimes it feels like, in spite of your best efforts, everything you’ve worked hard for to accomplish in your position has been in vain. It’s very important not to isolate yourself. Engaging with others is healthy and often very helpful. Connecting, sharing ideas, sharing concerns, even just having someone to have a beer with or tell a funny joke is important. You are not as alone as you might think. And when things are rough, those HIMs that you surround yourself with will give you that inspiration to keep fighting the good fight. AYE.
