Okay, so I was thinking last night and a good portion of today about the characteristics of this great leader from the movie King Arthur. From the beginning of the film we see that even as a young boy he felt called to follow truth over power. His round table stressed that each man under him never sat below him. His heart was for his men and what they had earned not what he had earned. I would even go as far as to say that he love the men who served under him and would rather die himself than have one of this knights lose their freedom.
So as I was thinking about what great qualities he had, it dawned on me that those are the same features that are associated with Jesus Christ. As a boy Jesus was in search of truth not popularity. He stressed the freedom and truth of God’s plan. For those he loved he was even willing to die so that they could get what was not due them.
And I realized that I’d be better off saying that Jesus has the qualities of the leader that I do follow and I would be grateful if I could ever have similar qualities myself.
