Servant's Leader

Leader: a person who has commanding authority or influence [Merriam-Webster Dictionary]

Given this definition, it is scary to obey God and regard our husbands as our leader. To surrender our authority over ourselves to another person and be in a position vunerable to being hurt by that person.

However, in Luke 22:26-27 of the bible,

Jesus said to them (vs 25)...the greatest among you should be like the youngest, and the one who rules like the one who serves... But I am among you as one who serves.



Jesus was a born leader, charismatic, faithful and full of wisdom. The disciples gave up their careers and left their hometown to follow this man in His crusades and ministries. Yet He was also a servant leader. He taught my lao gong, to be the greatest, you have to be as humble as the youngest. To rule, you must also serve.

It's not that bad to be in a position of being someone else's subordinate when you get a servant leader right? =P
