Jethro had to have several qualities about him in order for Moses to listen. Metro’s love and concern for Moses was matched by keen observation skills. He had the courage to create the conversation and speak into his life. Metro’s wisdom and compassion for Moses not only influenced his son in law but the whole culture of the Hebrews. One of the most influential people I’ve known has been pastor Doug Shada. He developed connections with people in many locations and was a student of leadership skills. He did not hesitate to speak into a person’s life, suggesting opportunities, correcting wrong behavior, or helping create positions for success. At the same time he was very careful to not take credit even though it was a temptation. Perhaps you and I’ve been called to a simple quiet kind of lifestyle, yet who knows how we be able to influence others. May God open our eyes to those opportunities, just like Jethro.
