Have You Hugged Your Pastor Today? 1 Corinthians 9:1-7

Today’s scripture text is very timely for my family. Paul is talking to the church in Corinth about how pastor’s need to be taken care of for all the work they do. Weather it is through physical payment or by means of church members providing for them, it is the churches duty to make sure they’re able to survive.

Today as you read this, my family is on the road moving from California to Wisconsin where Steve will be ordained as an associate pastor in a church outside of Milwaukee. Being a pastor is going to be hard work, but we are excited about the life God has called us too. We venture to Wisconsin with a peaceful heart because we are going to be at a church that will take care of us.

Have you thought about your pastors and all that they do? Take some time today and thank God for providing people who teach you to follow God deeper, and who will celebrate your joy and cry with you in times of sorrow. Pray for your pastor today. They made have needs that require your intercession. Maybe even drop them a note, letting them know how much you appreciate them.
