Reflecting on 30 years of my pastoral ministry, I cannot be sure of myself being continuously matured and perfect in learning and endeavoring. A journalist asked Billy Graham what the utmost thing he would do if he has a chance to go back in the time of his young age. Graham replied that he would spend more time on meditating and studying the Word of God. As the time passes by, as my ministry experiences accumulate, I now realize being close with the Word is probably the most regretless pastoral ministry.
In order to strike the target (so called circumstances) with the arrow (so called the Bible) the first thing to do is to sharpen the arrow to fly without swaying in the midst of storming weather. At the same time, we ought not to miss the target that never stand still with our eagle eyes. With all the efforts mentioned above, we need sharp concentration just as a lion seizing a prey. From the aspect of a lion putting the best effort not to miss a minute movement or even a sound of breathing of a prey, we observe a true characteristic of a pastor devoting everything for the body of Christ, the church.
Indeed, continuously carrying on the process of equipping believers with the spiritual armor by drawing them into the gravity of the word of God from the world that changes in a speed of light, and sending them to the world is not an easy job. Then how can they be equipped with the power to make breakthrough to the temptations and adversities that they face in the world?
First of all, there must be a recovery in the lives of believers through the worship. It is crucial for the Sunday worship service be the very core and peak of the week in order to achieve the recovery. Only so, the church and the believers can revive. This includes submitting pastors¡¯ lives under the word of God if it is our utmost duty to continuously learn and endeavor for the worship.
Moreover, even the pastors who have deep biblical insights can face limitations in their ministry when they fail to demonstrate that they live as they teach before their spouses. I recognize myself becoming more careful to those who are close to me. It may not be easy to earn respect as a pastor from them, but if we pass through that door, the true pastoral path will be shown. Often, we say pastors need to be professional in three rooms, that is, prayer room, study room and counseling room. But nowadays, there should be one more room, bedroom, for we ought to be a good example to the closest ones. It may be burdensome but it is our life long destiny.
The role of a tour guide at a pilgrimage is absolutely significant. The quality and the impact of the tour depends on the tour guide. Tour guides whom they constantly put efforts studying the sites with spiritual sensitivity have extraordinary guiding skills. Same principle applies to the pastors.
Pastoral fields are strictly clear and honest. No one can hide nor deceive in pastoral fields. The well being of the body of Christ is a barometer to measure how diligently pastors learn and endeavor in the right direction under the illumination of the Holy Spirit. We should never forget that this cannot be achieved without daily spiritual dedication.
