Capable does not always equal called . Can does not always equal should . Just because it ’ s logical , that doesn ’ t mean it ’ s the Lord ’ s .
Teach + Lead
If God has called you to teach , please teach . Some must teach because others need to be taught . If God calls you to lead , please lead ! Some must lead because others need to be led . But at the end of the day , siblings always fall short when they try to be the parent . So instead of trying to overstep our God-given role , we will be much more effective for one another when our goal is to serve God and others as a spiritual sister versus attempting to lead as a spiritual superior .
