What's the difference between disruptive levels of complacency and disruptive levels of contentment in our leadership?
Disruptive Complacency - Let's say you're in a rowboat on the open sea, trying to get to a distant island. You row and row and row and get a little closer but the currents continually push you away from your destination. You're depending completely on your own power, which is limited by your own finite strength.
Disruptive Contentment - Now imagine yourself in the same spot, but instead of a rowboat, you have a powerful sailboat. Your course is now set by the wind, which has infinite more power than you, and never gets tired. You trust the wind to take you to your intended destination.
So how do we become a disruptively contented leader? The more we empty ourselves out, the more room we have for God to fill us with His infinite power. It's as if we are a glass that can only hold so much liquid. If we want to change the contents we must first empty the glass of its original contents. In the same way if we want to become a disruptively contented leader that people will want to be led by and influenced by we must empty our "glass" daily and allow Christ to fill it up with His infinitely refreshing power.
