"IF YOU DON'T LIKE YOUR PASTOR OR MINISTRY"

Pastors don’t quit because they have a lack of faith in God. They don’t quit because they don’t believe in the calling God has placed on their life. Most don’t even quit because of financial reasons.

Pastors quit because they are overwhelmed with mental exhaustion, heart attack or even stroke, thus even didn't quit- died instead.

Until you are a Pastor you’ll never fully understand what it’s like to carry spiritual burdens for people getting up in the middle of night, praying for your family of faith, awakened in the middle of night with someone on your heart, overwhelmed with concern by a persons absence or distance.

His mind is continually occupied with the presentation of the upcoming Sunday message - how to preach it, what to teach on, how do we apply it?

He is getting critiqued on a continual basis, being told you need to do better or that some areas of the church simply need to be better.

PASTORS: invest their whole life into people and yet people will turn their backs on their pastor at the first sign of a storm, usually without a conversation.

PASTORS: stand in the middle of disputes.

PASTORS : stand in the middle of gossip.

PASTORS : counsel marital conflicts or broken marriages.

PASTORS : comfort those who have suffered loss.

PASTORS : navigate the waters of imperfect people with a desire to see each one thrive in their faith. They long for spiritual breakthroughs.

PASTOR : craves the very best for you. All of this, while trying to battle their own flesh and grow in their own relationship with God.

PASTORS : see the posts.

PASTORS : hear the whispers.

PASTORS endure the negativity.

PASTORS are continually caring for the sheep while fending off the wolves.

PASTORS : pour out and pour out - rarely being poured into.

What keeps a faithful Pastor going?

Primarily, his motivation not to quit comes from the love of Christ, the guarantee of our body’s resurrection and the day of reckoning at the Judgement Seat of Christ… 2 Cor. 5:1-21

Secondarily, it is YOU…

YOU - the person who is genuinely hungry.

YOU - the person who worships with passion and freedom. You - the teenager who is striving to be a follower of Jesus.

YOU - the single mom who understands the beauty of the hope found in Christ.

YOU - the one who walks through the door for the first time because you’re in search of peace, hope, and community.

Pray for your Pastor.

Pray for his wife.

Pray for his children.

Serve with your Pastor.

Talk with your Pastor.

Appreciate your Pastor.

Encourage your Pastor.

They are human.

They need you more than you think.

They need someone like you who will lift his arms for you to win the battles of life.

Kristyanong noo'y umaapoy
bakit tila ayaw mo nang magpatuloy?
mga luhang dumadaloy,
bakit sa sanlibutan mo na inaalay?

Ano bang dahilan,
at bakit mo sya tinalikuran?
Napagod ka lang ba,
O sadyang sa kasalanan ika'y lulong na

Kapatid, di ba nangako ka,
na "kahit anong mangyari ipaglalaban mo sya"
na "kahit anong mangyari magpapatuloy ka"
Ngunit bakit ngayo'y sumuko ka?

ASAN NA 'YUNG DATING IKAW?

—yung ikaw na laging uhaw sa kanyang presinsya,
—yung ikaw na laging gutom sa kanyang mga salita,
—yung ikaw na walang ibang hangad kundi mapasaya sya,
—at higit sa lahat, yung ikaw na naglilingkod ng masaya.

Kapatid, gumising ka!
Sapagkat sya’y malapit na
Wag mong hayaang maiwan ka,
at sa Impyerno’y matusta.

Matthew 5:13 You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled underfoot.

ARE YOU A SALT OR AN lNSULT?

SALT does not need to look like other Ingredients, and sends out no Aroma like other Seasonings, but without it the Soup is Tasteless.

Men of True Impact don't Fight for Position, Visibility or Appearance.

Their Results Speak for them not their Propaganda.

You don't need to Shout to be heard, People keep quiet to listen to Intelligent People.

Salt Maintains its Integrity Amidst Pollution.

Have you seen where a Salt buyer demands to taste it before buying because Salt has proved its Integrity over the Ages.

If you will need to Swear before People can believe you, you lack Integrity.

Is your Life like Salt to the Earth or an Insult?

The Easiest and only way Salt can lose its Taste is when it mixes with too much of anything. So Watch your Associations with people without noble values.. Salt is very precious and should not be wasted.. STAY PURE.

"MAINTAIN YOUR DIGNITY"
If one day, we all are allowed to put our problems on a table and exchange them, I'm sure that after a few minutes, everyone would silently take back their own & leave the table. There is no such thing as a perfect life, nobody has it all together. Just as our faces are different, so are our problems.

Never be envious of what someone else has. You don't know the price they paid to get it and the price they are paying to keep it. You don't own half of the problems in this world. While you are discreetly wishing to be like the other person, Someone else is seriously praying for that life you take for granted. Sometimes the people you envy, are actually wishing they could have the life you live.

Be contented and cherish what you have.
You can be anything you want, just don't be ungrateful.
