A bank I audited as a young man had a bank president named Ron. Ron had one of the most profitable and respected banks in our system.
Ron cared deeply for his team members, and for his community.
Ron watched over each teammate, protecting them from verbally abusive customers and loving and serving them in their times of need. He also forgave and helped a former employee find a job after serving her prison term for embezzlement.
1 Peter 5:2 says, “Be shepherds of God’s flock that is under your care, watching over them—not because you must, but because you are willing, as God wants you to be.”
A shepherd’s heart, like Ron’s, is a rare, but greatly respected quality. A good shepherd tends to have faithful followers.
