Elder Corner 9/19/10

Hello church family. I was just reading a daily e-devotional from Our Daily Bread. It talked about how challenging it can be for pastors. Especially in a culture that too often demands nothing less than perfection from our leaders. Fortunately, God doesn’t require perfection from us or our pastor. If He required perfection from His flock, we would all fall short! The devotional ended with these words…“So, let’s switch the focus and become high-performance church members who honor our pastors with words of encouragement and prayer.” Please find time to give our pastors encouragement every chance you can!

Dave, this is so true. We all need to be careful how we judge or what we expect from those who lead us. I've heard many state how pastors require a higher standard of living in order to be God's chosen. Yet, we still need to remember they are not better than anyone else here on earth. Too, we have a responsibility to uphold those leading the church in prayer to God.
