Haiku of selfless leadership
He comes through the
gate,
the shepherd; so we
trust him
to protect the
sheep.
Up front,
transparent,
one who goes ahead
of us;
we will follow him.
Some leaders
pretend:
Follow me, I'll
care for you!
In
it for themselves.
Thieves,
crooks and bandits,
these
come to steal and destroy.
Jesus
is no thief.
The
good shepherd comes
to
give his all for the flock.
The
sheep know his voice
Jesus
is the gate.
Through
this man we enter life,
abundant
and true.
