LONELINESS IN LEADERSHIP
There's a loneliness in leadership that only God can fill.
There's a loneliness in leadership that invites us to be still.
There's a loneliness in leadership that isolates us from the crowd.
Servants dying daily are offered His Anointing, well endowed.
There's a loneliness in leadership, stressful pressures with deadlines.
But loving comfort from The Father offers peace and joy refined.
There is a loneliness in leadership. There's a call to "Come Away".
God refreshes in His Presence if we are teachable and will obey.
In the loneliness of leadership, there's a Call to Godliness uniquely yours.
Friendship with the Gardener plants ministry vision deeper than before.
There's a companionship that blesses. There's a joy that is profound
Walking hand and hand with Jesus, intimate friendships will abound.
Oh, keep focused, weary Pilgrim. You are Divinely called in Jesus' Name.
Loneliness is a hazard in God's vineyard, but know that He heals your pain.
Relax friendship fears, dear Leader. Trust the Lord to see you through
Networking with other leaders might be God’s appointment for me or you.
Let us encourage other leaders, be it for a season, a day or two.
May I clasp your hand in friendship? Would you pray for me too?
Let us praise the Lord in friendship, gently listen with our hearts,
As seeds of friendship are planted loneliness will not even start.
SO…….
Let's pick up our tools, dear Pilgrim. Read our Bibles, claim our songs.
Transparently walking with Jesus. God's vineyard is where we belong!
