I recently attended a leadership meeting and as I sat there surrounded by what I will call "Professional" leaders, I found myself feeling very out of place, very naive and immature. As I was dwelling on my shortcomings and inadequacies. I had these words start running through my mind:
Oh, if you
could look inside my heart, you would see a frail broken little girl looking for
her place to be.
Oh, if you
could look inside my heart, you would see, a frail little girl willing to cry
with thee.
Oh, if you could
look inside my heart, you would see this broken little girl’s pure love for thee.
Oh, if you
could look inside my heart, you would see the great love this little girl has
for her Eternal Father, her eternal family and His great plan of happiness for
all to see.
Oh, if you
could look inside my heart, you would see her sincere desire to serve her Lord
her God with all her being.
Oh, if you
could look inside my heart, you would see Our Eternal Father’s great love for thee.
Oh, if you
could look inside my heart, you would see a sound understanding of our Eternal
Father’s plea, ‘Remember the worth of souls are so very precious to me.’”
I believe it was a gentle reminder that the Lord looks upon the heart and He had his reasons for calling me to this leadership position and that I need to keep trusting in Him.
