Most Likely to . . .Campione

Have you ever looked back on a situation and realized you fell into peer pressure or just followed the crowd even though you knew it wasn’t right? It is through these moments that we discover life is full of opportunities to lead or simply blend in with everyone else.

Jesus talked about this opportunity to take two different paths in Matthew 7:13–14. Jesus is comparing these two paths that lead to him, but also represents the paths we can take as leaders. One path that is easy and many take that leads away from God and another one that is far better. This path is hard to find and even harder to navigate, but it leads us to living a full life.

Over time, we learn that leading in a way that points people to Jesus isn’t easy. Today, take some time to think about how you can lead like God this week. Maybe it is being committed to praying or journalling this week and asking for wisdom. It could be looking for friends that challenge you to lead and bring out the best in you, or even talking with your small group leader or pastor about finding a new way to help at your church.

Leading like God is not always easy, but it is the path that leads to a thriving, fuller life.
