God is Not Like the Leaders at MSC

The kings of the Gentiles exercise lordship over them, and those in authority over them are called benefactors. But not so with you. Rather, let the greatest among you become as the youngest, and the leader as one who serves. - Luke 22:25–26

He doesn't have very high highs and very low lows. He is consistent. He is faithful and true, unwavering. He doesn't keep us guessing or on our toes, never knowing if we are doing something right or wrong. Never knowing if we're going to get pulled into a meeting because we "missed" something we weren't even aware we needed to catch. No one is that prophetic or wise. We are human and He grows us, but He doesn't berate us for every little thing. The way leaders at MSC lead looks nothing like Jesus. Jesus doesn’t change moods like the wind, swinging without warning into fear and intimidation and control by way of verbal blastings and cautionary reminders about what happened to _____ when they stepped out of line; these techniques are manipulative and oppressive. God doesn't do that. God is not an abusive Father.
