Seeing the Big Picture: Leadership and Growth
Seeing the Big Picture: Leadership and Growth In leadership and in life, it’s easy to get caught up in our personal roles, preferences, and opinions. But as John Maxwell shares, true leadership means understanding that “it’s not about you, it’s not about me—it’s about the big picture.” When making decisions, we must consider what’s best for the team, organization, or mission rather than focusing solely on individual wants.

222: A New Season, A New Wineskin Mark 2:22 NLT says, “And no one puts new wine into old wineskins. For the wine would burst the wineskins, and the wine and the skins would both be lost.

Vision: The Power of Clear Direction
“Where there is no vision, the people perish; but blessed is the one who heeds wisdom’s instruction.” – Proverbs 29:18 (NIV) In life, having a clear vision is essential. Without direction, we can easily find ourselves lost, overwhelmed, or making choices that lead us nowhere. Just like driving a car, we need to see the road ahead clearly before making a move. Rushing forward without clarity can lead to confusion, frustration, and even failure. That’s why it’s important to pause, seek wisdom, and ask God for guidance. He gives us the peace and direction we need to move forward with confidence. When things seem blurry or uncertain, it’s a sign…
