Some have lamented, “Where are the leaders who seek God?” Their complaint reminds me of a time in the '80s when none of the city pastors showed up for morning prayer. Alone in a cold, dark, empty church, I too lamented for nearly an hour. Suddenly the atmosphere changed. Everything – the hum of the furnace, the clatter of the grates, even my thoughts – all things were subdued. The presence of the Lord was in the room. Looking directly at me He said, “You be the man you want the others to be.” At that moment I stopped criticizing church leaders and started to become one.
