PARENTAL Anxiety S11e42 2cor11:28

Has anybody spiritually cared for you like a parent cares for their child?  Have they had a "spiritual anxiety" over you?  Do they feel your pains as their pains? Do they not know where their heart stops and your's begins?

If you find a Pastor like that, you probably have the right guy. 

In general, we are not supposed to be anxious, especially for ourselves. Phil 4:6. However, there is room for some "pastoral anxiety" which looks a whole lot like "parental anxiety." This is care for another.  This is their wounds are your wounds.  This is feeling like when someone is knocked down, it is as if it happened to you.  

May we all have pastors like that.
