Don't Go Alone

Often, leaders feel alone. We all need people around us to encourage us, advise us, and believe in us. Of course, we must fully rely on God to be our source. Yet, God never intended us to go it alone (Genesis 2:18). It is unwise to for leaders to think they are sufficient of themselves (Proverbs 18:1).

We often deceive ourselves into believing we are smart enough, strong enough, and resourceful enough to accomplish what God has called us to. If we’re doing what we’re doing without the help of others, our ability to help others will be limited. We are no good to anyone if no one is good to us.

Leader: you don’t always need a full time staff. There are creative ways to involve others without paying them. If your vision is compelling enough, people will want to help you. People don’t have to be in your office to be in your life. Being alone is a choice. You can do it, but you don’t have to do it alone.

“If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to far, go together.” ~ African Proverb
