The One Year Bible - Day 131

Preparation, what does that mean? In the workplace, we sometimes find that before we get a promotion, we have the chance to try out some of the tasks required to prove we can do it. In the church, the same could be said of people who are earmarked for leadership. We need to pray, to be tested, to take the counsel of others and various other preparations before we would presume to take over a role.

Sadly, too many people lack this preparation and find themselves ill-equipped to handle the challenges of their new roles.
