Called, Chosen and Commissioned

It's no secret that good leadership is essential in life For if you're not properly lead you may experience stress and strife Good leaders are needed to show us how to do things right Good leaders are prevalent in showing us God's light A blind man named Bartimaeus was s beggar on the side of the road He was in a precarious situation if the truth were to be told He needed a way out of his dereliction He needed a good leader to give him direction And yet when I look our political situation these days I see clowns who want to be leaders and I immediately start to pray Not many are called, a few are chosen and less have been commissioned But when a person has the right stuff he will have God's permission Thank God for those seasons when good leaders manifest Those who have been called to correct and address To show us what's right and how to have a good attitude To challenge us and help us develop the right aptitude So that we are made ready to face controversy And are better prepared to face the advesary Good leaders are called to show us the true posture of God And how to walk humbly and strive mercifully with love in our hearts Good leaders are chosen to challenge the status quo And show us how little we actually know To remind us not to judge but just accept For good leaders don't look down nor do they expect Everyone to be perfect and in the right place For good leaders are like the roadside church of Jesus offering mercy and grace Now the roadside church of Jesus does not discriminate The roadside church of Jesus does not segregate It calls out to any and all who have a need or desire As the roadside church of Jesus is godly inspired There are no rules or regulations that may spiritually impede The roadside church of Jesus is about serving one's needs Good leaders are commissioned to help bring about change Full of the Holy Spirit that has the power to rearrange Any circumstances and all situations Any problems and all complications Good leaders are commissioned to comprehend and understand What is required to be a godly woman or man To let us know that a roadside mentality Will not lead you towards prosperity Good leaders are called, chosen and commissioned in life To correct, challenge and change us to be like the roadside church of Christ
