What does leadership look like? This picture right here.
Why?
Is it because a leader needs to tower over others? Of course not.
No. She stood on this chair because the room was full of so many people wanting to pray before Pure Joy started that she didn’t want to miss out on anyone hearing her as she spoke blessings out over the event and shared her heart regarding all the miracles she knew was going to take place that night.
This picture looks like leadership because when God puts a vision in your heart, and you choose complete obedience to walk that vision out, people will follow you.
This is a picture of leadership because when you become one of the most humble people that others know, they want to learn from you listen to you, and serve alongside you.
This is a picture of leadership because when you don’t try to force something to be great, God will make it greater than you could ever even ask or imagine, and others will show up and want to walk in that greatness with you.
With powerful vocals and haunting lyrics, “Jesus and Time” offers a poignant and heartbreaking glimpse into the world of an abusive relationship. The song is a testament to the struggles of those trapped in cycles of violence and trauma, unable to break free from their abusers. Listen now wherever songs are streamed.
Sandy Jacobson is one of the most humble people I’ve ever met, and I don’t even know her all that well.
But this is what I do know about her…
She exudes Jesus.
When I am around her for even 30 seconds, I can feel the presence of Holy Spirit, and she hasn’t even opened her mouth to speak yet.
She doesn’t care what other people think about her because her focus is on Jesus and who she is in Him and what He can do through her. And she’s willing to look foolish to do whatever He calls her to.
I want to be like her when I grow up, and I pray I can love people half as well as she does.
This. Is. Leadership.
I have no doubt that one day Sandy will see the thousands upon thousands of women dancing in heaven and Jesus is going to say to her, “Well done, my good and faithful servant. They are here because you loved the way I taught you to love.”
