I have often said that one of the roles of a leader is to “instruct and inspire.” As leaders instruct, we share facts and knowledge. When we inspire, we are dealing with the emotional side of life.

This reminds me of Philippians 4:7 where Paul wrote “And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.” You see, our God understands us because He made us! The Holy Spirit deals with both our emotions and our intellect.
