LIGHT FOR THE WAY
(Daily Devotional)
"How good when people live together in unity" (psalm 133;1)
BE A TEAM PLAYER
Cooperation is working together with another. It's when the whole is greater than its parts. And creating positive cooperation is having the right people, at the place, at the right time, focusing on the right goal. I read that after world war II Chester Nimtz, Chief of US Naval operations wanted to keep alive public interest in naval aviation. As a result The Blue Angels Naval Flight Demonstrations Squadron was created and performed its first operation in one year. To this day the team has a clear objectives. They select only qualified candidates who consistently operate at peak performance. After been carefully screened, pilot must receive sixteen votes from the existing members. If one votes no, the candidate is out of the race. No reason or explanation required, that's the level of trust and respect the members have for one another's judgement. As a blue Angel, your team becomes your family. And when a new member is enlisted, you entrust him with your life. Making by the squad isn't the most important thing either. You are responsible for playing your part, demonstrating your value and pursuing excellence on daily basis. Nothing short of total commitment is accepted.
Being a team player can be challenging but it can also be most rewarding in term of results and fulfilment.
Are you a soul trader or team player? Are you loyal and reliable? When the chips are down, can others rely on you to put their interest ahead of your own?
Prayer point
Father, as I work along side side others I receive the wisdom and strength to do my best in Jesus name.
