It's called the LWT, its short for Leader Without a Title. I think many of us can relate to this. Often we think to ourselves in our cultural context of being Southeast Asian Americans who function under a cultural constraints, context, "ministry", and or occupation as stuck? Hurt? Plateaued, mediocre, with lack of focus, limited?? Some might even still be struggling with self worth and value in their capabilities. We are approaching SEALS 2014, in a 2 weeks and it is a leadership summit right. Here is some food for thought:
How does this take us to depend on God's love? How do we REMAIN in him with this though of disintegrating our negative thoughts and behaviors, our past.....
The more thought put into choosing to disintegrating negative thoughts, behaviors, and past experiences leads us to consider what it means to deny yourself to take up the cross DAILY, what does being created in His likeness really mean, and how can we function in ministry better in relationships rather than treating it as a position in "work/ministry/mission". It comes down to the power we have in relationships and the power we have in making a choice to change. Changes birth new opportunity; new opportunity dawn new horizon to gaze upon. And new horizons means we have more capability for contribution to our communities. (Luke 9:23, Genesis 1:26, and John 15:11)
With our capability to own being a leader without a title. This makes everyone a leader. Our titles describe the responsibilities of our gifts we have committed to grow and to share. When we look at this quote we can reconsider, reconstruct, and regenerate our lives to make room for personal ambition towards the fullness of joy that God really wants us to experience. When we are doing most excellent we can help others do their most excellent. (John 16:23)
SEALS is celebrating our 10th year. Can we celebrate all that has changed in 10 years. May we strive for excellence and brilliance of God's glory for the next 10 years!!!
If you want to read more about Leader Who Had No Title by Robin Sharma. It is a very good practical read. (Kindle Version $11). There are main principles that help us understand how we can be the best of ourselves without having the "title". Unfortunately, it is not a Christian read, but there are so many ways to apply Biblical principle and scripture to the writings and quotes in this book. It is even easy to explain to the youth in your community, which is quite exciting!
Blessings!
