Vision

Leaders talk a lot about vision and we should. But I am wondering if we miss a key part of the visioning moment. Vision is much more than just a big picture that we throw out and hope someone grasps and joins us. Jesus did broadcast vision. However, he also made vision very specific to his key leaders. Peter he gave a vision of being a rock, solid, foundational. James and John he named sons of thunder, men of passion. The vision Jesus cast would call for sacrifice and commitment. But it was clearly to be a blessing, a specific blessing that would alter the lives of those committed in a positive way. Vision always has to be digested so that people understand what they are giving their lives for and who they will become along the way.
