Quotes about Leader
Shipping, because it doesn't count if you don't share it. Creative, because you're not a cog in the system. You're a creator, a problem solver, a generous leader who is making things better by producing a new way forward. Work, because it's not a hobby. You might not get paid for it, not today, but you approach it as a professional. The muse is not the point, excuses are avoided, and the work is why you are here.

In Greek, the sentence structure is reversed so that it reads, "For as many as by the Spirit are being led, they are the sons of God." This version puts the Holy Spirit at the first of the verse, and we are placed behind Him — just as children stay behind the leader as they play "Follow the Leader"!
