May 5th - Sensitivity

This reading was very encouraging.  "Do nothing from selfishness or empty conceit, but with humility of mind regard one another as more important than yourselves; do not merely look out for your own personal interests, but also for the interests of others."
PHILIPPIANS 2:3-4

The devotional reminded me that there are many types of leaders/leadership.  However not all leaders/leadership is effective.  The Apostle Paul encourages his readers to, "considers others more important than themselves" and to "look out for others personal interests."  This type of living is leadership.  This type of living demands that we limit our freedom and make room for others initiative, energy, and activity. 

"To effectively lead is to draw out the creative capacity of those who you serve"
