Those who today occupy positions of trust should seek to learn the lesson taught by Solomon’s prayer. The higher the position a man occupies, the greater the responsibility that he has to bear, the wider will be the influence that he exerts and the greater his need of dependence on God…. He is to stand before God in the attitude of a learner.  Position does not give holiness of character.  It is by honouring God and obeying His commands that a man is made truly great— Ellen Gould White
