I really enjoyed reading the 1st chapter of this book. Character is a vital point to leadership. I have observed leaders in my past who had the talk but when they were tested failed to have the actions and character to back up their knowledge. As I have grown in my walk with Christ I have been tested many times to be Christ like and utilize the knowledge of God's Word. There have been times that I have failed, where I missed it, but it came down to my heart's attitude and character. Even though I messed up I was able to show character. I began to realize that a leader is not perfect but a leader is one who can show Christ's ultimate power through one's life and that is true character when you allow Christ to be the Focus Point and not your self. Whenever I worship I find that my heart is truly to keep Christ at the center. I do try to apply the talent that He has blessed me with but if I focus too hard and my playing and not on Him my focus becomes on my own power rather than God's power working through me. So I challenge you all to not worry about perfection but realize when we allow the Holy Spirit to be our focus, true character will shine through!
