The Driver's Seat

I was involved in a recent discussion that reminded me of the importance of reviewing some of the church's principles from time to time.  The specific one that was invovled in the conversation has to do with making decisions.  We profess in many documents and settings within the church that Jesus Christ is the head of the church.  But how often do we take Christ out of the driver's seat?  How many times do we fail to recall that it is not OUR church, it is not OUR vision, it is not OUR priorities that matter?  If Jesus is truly the head of the Church, then that means Jesus generates the vision and sets the priorities.

So as we continue to go about our work.  We must be mindful that it is important to listen for the voice of Christ and to keep Jesus in the driver's seat!
