What a Pastor Covets!
1 Peter 5:2-4 Feed the flock of God which is among you, taking the oversight thereof, not by constraint, but willingly; not for filthy lucre, but of a ready mind; Neither as being lords over God's heritage, but being ensamples to the flock. And when the chief Shepherd shall appear, ye shall receive a crown of glory that fadeth not away.
A qualified pastor, willingly feeds and leads as an example! These types of men do not take Biblical oversight lightly.
Because of this: they do NOT need your pity; they are NOT after your pocketbook; and they do NOT desire the approval of men.
But they do covet your PRAYERS, because they know, all too well, that they will someday stand before the chief Shepherd.
Pray for your Pastor!
