Signboards

Signboards are wonderful things, they show the way and direct people to the right places on their journeys. Signboards or signposts helps those that are lost find their way to their desired destinations but they do not move to such directions themselves. They stay in one place directing people but don't progress. They are bearers of messages that lead people to do the right things but they don't do what they say. Can I ask you a question? Do you practice all that you lead others to do? If you don't, then you are like a signboard. Practising all that you say requires being hard on yourself. And that is a requirement for leadership and life.  As we move on in life's journey our marriages, careers, ministry and relationships it is important that we lead by example and not be like signposts.  Practice what you preach!
