As a woman, I have often allowed the people who steered the Titanic to guide me, instead of allowing those who built the ark.
I do not always need professional support. Sometimes, I need support from someone who has crossed the threshold of perfectionism and they are living each day by sound faith and judgement. I need to be guided by the person who is willing to be foolish in the name of wisdom because their heart heard the words of God and they will not compromise.
We must have both kinds of people in our lives. Dr. Myles Munroe said that the most important training that pastors should have is Business Management, so that when they gain access to so much money from tithes and offertory, they are more inclined to manage it properly. Business Management and Leadership are the primary courses that pastors for pastors.
With all our spiritual ability, add a touch of professionalism, too.
As a woman, you need to hear from the person who has surpassed professionalism and their lives are now accelerated by faith.
The one who built the ark built it to perfection and yet in order to start, it took faith. Faith in the face of folly. Faith in the face of mockery. That's the person we need to guide us, who is not led by their title but by something much higher and more powerful.
As a woman, not ever person with the right credentials is supposed to be in my driver's seat. Not everyone with the right speech, is meant to be speaking into my life. It's the person who has crossed that threshold and now their journey is just accelerated by faith, because they are in a place where there is no other option but to live by faith. Professionalism alone, is not enough.
That is the person whom I need to guide me.
Happy Women's Day Y'all women
