Nothing new, it is natural for us to search for something bigger in life which will give us meaning and a reason to live.

We can say that love is a strong feeling of affection one person can have for his or her children or the person he or she is married to.

This 'call' has been generally understood to come from God, which made it quite easy for them to be accepted as leaders. But Oswald Sanders said, in his book 'Spiritual Leadership', that, "in many cultures today where Christian leadership carries prestige and privileges, people aspire to leadership for reasons quite unworthy and self-seeking."1 Such people hide their true motive under the guise of 'call'.
