Leadership that is based on the call of God instead of leadership based on need makes all the difference in the world. Thanks for the reminder–really points us back to our starting place: intimacy and relationship with our Father.

hacia dónde nos esta dirigiendo el Señor? mi inquietud en los dos íltimos meses ha sido elmismo, mi identidad y destino, Quién soy yo y para dónde voy?. Parece un poco tarde, despues de los cincuenta, pero es mejor tarde que nunca. En general estopy de acuerdo con tu artículo, sobre todo con hacer la pregunta y responderla. Parece que el intres de Diosen la biblia con todos los personajes fue esa, llevarlos a reconocer su… quienes eran. Si creo que Dios no se ha tomado tanto amor en crearnos solo por el placer de hacerlo, además nos dió identidad y destino, pero por qué no la descubrimos más temprano?, aqui comparto los pensamientos de Craig Hill: nuestros padres terrenales tienen la clave, mediente el recurso de la bendición, sobre todo el papa. no sabemos cuándo Jesús de Nazaret cayó en cuenta de que él era el Mesias, el Espiritu que estaba en Él lo llevó al templo a los trece años (época curiosa para los judios, epoca del bar mitzvah)y allí dijo a su madre: … en los negocios de mi padre… despues a los trinta más o menos, y al momento del bautismo, ceremonia para restaurar identidad posiblemente, El Padre desde el cielo lo confirma: TU ERES MI HIJO AMADO EN TI TENGO COMPLASENCIA, desde entonces Jesús empeso su ministerio público, tres años disparado hacia una meta, tres años sin parar ni distraerse, tres años de claridad de quién era y hacia dónde iva o mejor de dónde venia. La mayoría de padres terrenales no nos bendicen, como agentes de Dios le dan lugar al Diablo para que sea este el que trasmite en nosotros un erroneo sentido de identidad y destino, nos maldice. Entonces, vamos por la vida dando vueltas y sin darnos cuenta, ciegos, destruyendo y destruyendonos… con razón el evangelio dice: bendecid, bendecid, bendecid y no maldigais… la psicologia de la comunicación dice que todo ser humano, en el momento del encuentro con otro, lo que espera es ser afirmado en lo que es, pero la mayoria de nosotros ignoramos o descontamos y de este modo somos canales de maldición para el otro y para nosotros.

Comment on El Papel del Espiritu en el liderazgo en la iglesia by chadd

Gracias por la traducción Hugo. La importancia fundamental de la relación íntima con Dios en la vida de los que siguimos a Cristo es algo difícil de aprender y transmitir a los demás.

Me gusta la última parte–la exhortación a los más “experimentados” en el liderazgo en nuestro mentoreo con lideres más jovenes.

Personalmente, a veces pienso: “no quiero que me escuchen como un cd roto que sigo hablando la misma lección.” Pero cada vez estoy mas convencido que a lo mejor esta lección es la única!

¡Que Dios te bendiga mi hermano!

Comment on It is not about me! Exodus 32:7-14 by Dominic Lewis

Dominic Lewis :I recently had a conversation with a friend whom i have a history of sharing common hurts. As we were talking he brought the fact that i was not totally honest with him or myself and that i had a problem with being totally transparent. So, as i reflected on that conversation and then reading this article, i looked at Moses and wondered who helped him become transparent? It is apparent that only God has the ability to make a difference. Moses had people around him but ultimately he was always in Gods face to receive instruction. I have been guilty of grumbling and complaining about my previous journey at a certain church, it had a lot to do with projecting my own standards on them to fit my sense of righteousness. It is easy to interpret situations, because you are in leadership, and get the sense that you are the focal point for ministry. How does a person become transparent when you are the top? By talking to my friend i discovered that much work has to be done in me. I cannot be the leader of people if i am not totally honest with myself and allow him to do the work in me. I was good at leading others in introspective viewing, but i had no one helping me or keeping me accountable towards my own growth. I am a broken man who has made many mistakes as a leader. So it is amazing to me that i am still being asked to lead and that the father still trust me to lead. My epiphany, from reading this article, is that the father can use you to lead even with all you faults, because ultimately it is not about you. Who better to use as an example to the world than a a broken person so that he can show himself strong. As Hugo say’s it not about the organization or the goals of the individual but about God. God is the only one who can get the glory, but it is good to know that we are not left behind in the dust.

I think you are right in what you say but I would also like to add we all including myself need to pay attention not only to John 3: 16 ,but at 1st John 3:16 as well.

I believe you are spot on. For to many people like to put God in a box. ie- they belive that to get true worship you have to go to their bldg.,but not nesasary so for I to belive tha you could gather at somones house and sing praises to God and share the Lords table and learn from the scriptures. Besides true worship is how we live our lives for God 24 – 7
