"What is your opinion? If a man has a hundred sheep and one of them goes astray, will he not leave the ninety-nine in the hills and go in search of the stray?" Matthew 18:12
"What is your opinion?" Jesus seeks the input from His disciples. He already knows the will of the Father, He knows what the right answer is but He demonstrates servant leadership. He seeks to give others a voice, an opportunity to be heard, to be an integral part of the team. In leadership do You seeks others input, do you listen to them or do you charge on not really concerned about what they think. Jesus knew that His disciples had to believe and understand before they would adopt the will of God. Leadership is as much as listening as it is doing. God seeks your input every day, He seeks to give you a voice so He can also listen. How can He help if you don't speak to Him. What an awesome God to want to listen.

Dear Father God, I love the fact that you want to listen as much as you want to teach. Thank You for the love you demonstrate in action and the desire for each of us to come to know who You are. Bless this day Lord and I know your ear is always listening, it is I who must speak. Amen.
