What is your approach to life, business, and family? Are you proactive or reactive? A reactive leader is controlled by the crisis and incapable of turning vision into reality.
Proactive leaders don’t ignore the moment. Rather they choose to focus on the outcome and make forward-thinking decisions.
We can either be someone who shapes the future or merely reacts to it.
In Ephesians 1:11, Paul says, “We were destined by the plan of God, who accomplishes everything according to his design.” God has a plan. God sees the end from the beginning and works for the greater purpose.
Our communities are hungry for proactive leaders who refuse to be distracted and lean into God’s greater purpose. Are you the person to guide us?

Mid-Week Prayer:
Forgive us for our selfishness, silence, and refusal to love the way you have loved us. Teach us to love and care and give us the eyes of Jesus to see others the way you see us. Amen.
Showing Up
Make text messaging fun! Go on a text scavenger hunt (this is fun with kids and grandkids)
Send a text list of things they have to spot throughout their day. Make sure they are doable but also fun and playful. (For example picture of a yellow car, a bird, etc)
If you find encouragement in this newsletter, I would love for you to take the opportunity to share it with others. Thank you for reading.
