It’s been a busy week. Lots of great conversations in which joys have been expressed, sadness described, plans made, solutions sought to challenges. As I begin this second week, today in Osijek, I awoke to this view…
On the M’Cheyne train this morning, part of my reading was about the kings of Israel. Many of these guys did as they wished and cared little about others. On my walk I was thinking about leaders. I thought about the leaders I’ve known. Some of whom helped those with whom they worked become better at what they were doing. Others just used people as resources to build a kingdom for themselves. They got their identity from what they had achieved. Then, back on the M’Cheyne train, I’m reading Titus and was intrigued by these words.
“Show yourself in all respects to be a model of good works, and in your teaching show integrity, dignity, and sound speech that cannot be condemned, so that an opponent may be put to shame, having nothing evil to say about us.”Titus 2:7-8 ESV

This is a good teaching for me this morning, I thought it might be for you too.
