A Sacred Watch

It's a joy to be cared for by leaders who understand the responsibility they carry.

Keep watch over yourselves and all the flock of which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers. Be shepherds of the church of God, which he bought with his own blood.
⏤ Acts 20:28

First, govern yourselves. Overseers (leaders, supervisors, guards, helpers) carry a sacred responsibility. Elders are appointed by the Holy Spirit. They pastor precious souls redeemed by nothing less than Christ's blood. They care for God's family. What a humbling message. (By extension, could the same be said to parents, coaches, and employers?)
