Servant

On the FISH today, Christian artist Jadon Lavik gave a neat quote from his dad about servanthood.   Essentially, he said that you know you are not being a servant if when someone treats you like one, you are bothered.

And in a Leadership Seminar today, I was reminded that being a Leader is to be a sacrificial servant, as illustrated by Christ's example.   Matthew 20:25-28 says:
"Jesus called them together and said, “You know that the rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and their high officials exercise authority over them. Not so with you. Instead, whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant,  and whoever wants to be first must be your slave— just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.”"
