Hang on a minute, there's a Christian "Clergy Appreciation Day"?

Question

Hmmm, ya really do learn something new every day.

Now don't get me wrong...I'm all for showing my sincere appreciation to others who help me, teach/mentor me, care for me, etc.  I like to give credit where credit is due.  But I'm a little confused by this.

Wouldn't this be going against the give all your glory to God, put God first/before all others, praise God stuff?

So, you can take a day to show special appreciation to your clergy, those who are supposed to be working on God's behalf, but when the average ordinary human being does something extraordinary, worthy of praise and/or a show of appreciation, you give the credit to God?

I work at a Christian Book store and we've spent the last week setting up displays for this Clergy Appreciation Day. You wont believe how much some of these gifts cost! It's really kind of astonishing-- and they sell like hotcakes. Lucky pastor.

A Christian priest healed me when I was suffering from an unknown disease.
Credit for all good deeds goes to God and bad for Satan.
