Leadership is a big undertaking. It means giving of oneself in way that can feel near impossible at times. When God calls someone to leadership, however, His hand is on that person, giving them what they need to minister and serve. When He appoints a leader, it is because He knows they can handle what He is asking of them. As October is Pastor Appreciation Month, take some time to encourage your pastors and leaders.
"Have confidence in your leaders and submit to their authority, because they keep watch over you as those who must give an account. Do this so that their work will be a joy, not a burden."—Hebrews 13:17 NIV |
