When I was in high school I was a part of the RCL (Representative Counsel of learners) and I was also a part of the executive body. There was a policeman who came to our school (Welbedene Secondary School) to do a leadership seminar with us. It was very fun, No! Not because I was condoned from classes so I could talk nonstop, laugh uncontrollably and have the time of my life. If you were thinking that (big grin).
Before I get too carried away as I always do. My point of telling you about me being an RCL was not to brag but to tell you about a question we all had to answer in the seminar with a one reason or more to justify our answer.
The question was.
Drum roll
(Banging drums)
What animal would you associate yourself with because of similarities, qualities or character and Why?
Not so impressed about the question?
It might seem to you a question that off no significance but it has a lot locked into it, especially what answer and reason you give. Learners struggled to give answers and those learners who did give answers said most common answers amongst them. Example I think I am a Kitten/Cat because I am clean, witty and cute. Everyone wanted to be kittens but I refused to follow suit.
I said I am a Lion because I am strong, I am a leader. I am brave. The Lion is the King of the Jungle. The Lion hunts down its Prey, the Lion is respected and feared by all animals, the Lion is seen on the Mountain in the Lion King because it’s higher.
Everyone was so impressed and it made them realise there is something better than being just a small cat compared to a big Lion. There is more authority and significance and such greatness brought forth.
My point:
Jesus is the Lion of Judah who goes before us to prepare the way. Jesus is the Lion of Judah who devours our enemies by ripping his insides and making him bleed because he has interfered with Gods people. I say to you because we are of the Lion of the tribe of Judah.
