WFW - Titus 1:6-9


6An elder must be blameless, the husband of but one wife, a man whose children believe and are not open to the charge of being wild and disobedient. 7Since an overseer is entrusted with God's work, he must be blameless—not overbearing, not quick-tempered, not given to drunkenness, not violent, not pursuing dishonest gain. 8Rather he must be hospitable, one who loves what is good, who is self-controlled, upright, holy and disciplined. 9He must hold firmly to the trustworthy message as it has been taught, so that he can encourage others by sound doctrine and refute those who oppose it.

These are the attributes of an elder or a pastor but we are all called to live a godly lifestyle. These qualities should be what we aim for too. Just this Monday, our country elected a new president that would rule our country for the next 6 years. I can only pray that the new president would have even a few of these qualities too...
