You Can’t Structure A Win, But You Can Structure The Road To Get There

By February 25, 2014Church, Leadership

You can’t structure a win.

You can’t guarantee success. In fact, you can do everything right and still not produce the results you’re looking for. People get sick. People disappoint you. Circumstances happen beyond your control.

Stuff happens.

You can’t structure a win, but you can structure the scenarios that often allow results to happen. And, great leaders keep refining that process.

You can:

  • Set measurable goals and objectives.
  • Feed the stimulants that often produce the results you’re seeking. Or try new stimulants.
  • Improve creativity.
  • Develop new leaders.
  • Delegate.
  • Make plans.
  • Motivate people. Cast visions.

Then trust that God will do what God does.  

After all, God is in charge of results.

We can’t structure a win, but we can structure the scenarios that often allow results to happen.

And, I didn’t make it up. 

With no vision the people perish. Proverbs 29:18

Who builds without counting the costs? Luke 14:28-28.

Do all you know to do. Definitely do that.

Because…

He who knows the good he ought to do and doesn’t do it — sins. James 4:17

But, after you’ve done all you can — you can trust God with the results.

Leader, when you’ve done all you know to do, you can sleep well at night. Regardless of the results.
