Recently I was shadowing a connections team interview at church. The purpose was to meet with this young woman and help her to see the gifts that God has given her and where she might be best connected in our various church ministries. Listening to her talk about a time in her life when she had felt she was "in the zone", I noticed that her whole face lit up and her voice rang with passion. My friend who was doing the interview and I both identified leadership qualities in this woman that she didn't see in herself! It was so clear to us, and such a surprise to her!
That experience really made me think!
What ignites passion in my voice and lights up my face?
What qualities do others see in me that I have not fully realized?
What dreams might come true if my eyes weren't clouded with insecurity?
What could I accomplish if I saw what others see?
