Power Thought: I bought a Toyota Aventis in 2007

I bought a Toyota Aventis in 2007. I was excited about it and would make long journeys in my new car. However, every trip from Johannesburg to Harare would leave me with a stiff leg! Its an automatic, which I thought meant that I had to keep my foot on the accelerator to maintain a certain speed. It was only in May 2008, one year and five months after I bought the car that I discovered its ‘Cruise Control’ functionality. This is after my friend Mark went behind the wheel and suddenly activated the Cruise Control, leaving his leg free to relax. Had I read the manual or consulted the Toyota dealer who sold me the car to give me a tour of the car’s usage, I would have had enjoyable drives and would not have had to have knee/leg pain.

Your shape reveals your ministry but your servant’s heart will reveal your maturity.’ [Rick Warren]

When you can serve others and its effortless then you know you have qualified as a servant leader and as leaders if we could forget our positions in place of those that we serve, not only do we get the respect we hunger for but the support we need from them.
