Yesterday we were home, I was getting the cemetery photos on this site and then I made pages with instructions as to where they are located and put them in the genealogy books of our family.  In the afternoon we had coffee with the other seniors.

VERSE:
  Remember your leaders, who spoke the word of God to you.
Consider the outcome of their way of life and imitate their faith.
   -- Hebrews 13:7
    
THOUGHT:
  What makes a great Christian leader? The Holy Spirit emphasizes
three things in this passage: 1) they teach others the word of God;
2) they live as great examples for others; and 3) they have
observable faith. God puts each of us in positions of influence
with our children, our friends, our work acquaintances, and our
neighbors. What kind of spiritual leadership are we showing them?

PRAYER:
  God of all grace and Father of all compassion, please help me to
be a better Christian leader to the people you have put in my
sphere of influence. Empower me to have a life worth imitating. In
Jesus' name I ask this. Amen.
