Respect others . People will often disagree with you. There will be people whom you find it hard to appreciate. Yet, you must respect them and value their opinions and observations. Deacons and Pastors are all part of the body.
All members are part of the body.
Paul says that the parts of the body that seem to be weak are indispensable, and that the Lord has tempered the body together to form the composite that pleases Him. Don t retaliate . There will be plenty of times when you will wish to fight back, but you cannot for God has called you to be a leader. The Lord is your defense, and you need not feel that every accusation must be answered and every deed justified. It is the Lord s work.
