As people made in the image of God, we are called to be leaders: Gen 1:26 And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them havedominionover the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. Deu 28:13 And the LORD shall make thee the head, and not the tail; and thou shalt be above only, and thou shalt not be beneath; if that thou hearken unto the commandments of the LORD thy God, which I command thee this day, to observe and to do them: We are ambassadors of Christ The bible says to be in the world but not of the world, this is because we are Gods representatives, his ambassadors and as such we need to be leaders. Because you are called to be leaders your excuses are unacceptable to God because there is work he wants us to do. The harvest is plenty but the labourers are few (Mat 9:37). A good example of this is Moses: Moses commissioning: Exo 3:10 And now go, and I will send you to Pharaoh, that you may bring forth My people, the sons of Israel, out of Egypt. Exo 3:11 And Moses said to God, Who am I that I should go to Pharaoh, and that I should bring forth the sons of Israel out of Egypt? Exo 3:12 And He said, I will be with you. And this shall be the sign to you that I have sent you: When you have brought forth the people out of Egypt, you shall serve God upon this mountain. Exo 3:13 And Moses said to God, Behold, when I come to the sons of Israel, and shall say to them, The God of your fathers has sent me to you, and they shall say to me, What is His name? What shall I say to them? Exo 3:14 And God said to Moses, I AM THAT I AM. And He said, So you shall say to the sons of Israel, I AM has sent me to you. God also went on to explain about the blessings that the people will get coming out of Egypt and you know what Moses response was? Moses's answer Exo 4:1 And Moses answered and said, But, behold, they will not believe me nor listen to my voice. For they will say, Jehovah has not appeared to you. Qualities of a leader:

Life is pleasant. Death is peaceful. It's the transition that's troublesome.
