We need to find ways to reassure, support and remind our pastors that they are valued, liked and have made a difference in our lives.
Do I thank my pastors often? Not often enough. I am working on it, and I hope you will too.
It would be so meaningful if after the worship service you would take the time to say, “That was a good message.” But don’t stop there, tell him or her why it was meaningful or good to you. For example, tell your pastor:

During my early years as a pastor, I had a hard time balancing the demands of my job with the needs of my wife and family. Putting in long hours, struggling to get organized, and trying to figure out if I was up to this, I considered leaving the ministry. Eventually, the stress contributed to a divorce from my first wife.
During the difficult time when I was going through my divorce there was only one person from the church who called me daily, took me out for coffee to listen to me, and invited me to dinner. He did not lecture, did not pry, and did not try to get my wife and me back together. He was simply, steadfastly there for me. I will never forget the strength that man gave me.
