My Friday nights found themselves short of the typical football games and parties. In the basement of Living Water Evangelical Church I take out my humble acoustic guitar. Soon scores of elementary students will energetically run in.
After the children settle, I lead them in the first song. Initially I felt nervous about leadership. Being a leader means responsibility, not just to others, but also to myself. I had been given the privilege to become a role model, a non-stop duty that takes pride in integrity. As I sing, I see the children boldly jumping, dancing, unrestricted with joy.
Then I remember.
I became a leader for the children because I want them to always remember to find joy and refuge in their beliefs. I want them to always remember that their life has purpose and meaning. I want them to always remember that, despite any insecurity they may have, resilience trumps weakness. CC
