As I was reading that, I thought, "actually, these are good for any wife to remember!" And then, of course, I saw your note at the bottom. Great minds!! And great list! Thanks for the reminders.

Being a minister's wife is the greatest job on earth. I never knew the blessings that came with it until I experienced them for myself. To stand united, working together for God, knowing God will guide your hands and your mouths, asking Him to put you where He needs you---getting to tell others who He is and what He does and then watching as He proves Himself over and over to them. What an amazing job.

OH, I love the "lift your husband up even when you want to pinch his head off". That is a great one to remember. When you husband is any leadership job in a community people will look to his wife when determining the amount of respect that he deserves. I always pray that I will show him respect. I loved your list!!!!
I represent the "unlovely" who read your blog. Have a nice day.
I like this. I can see many if not all hitting home. I believe with all my heart that a good preacher has a great wife behind him.
Thanks for reminding us what it takes to be a preachers wife. I know it's not always an easy job.
Frogtown, you crack me up. Ha ha ha ha ha! I love it.
Trey, it is not an easy job and I want a raise.....I definately want a raise!
Monica, I think the respecting part is the hardest. I keep a rolled up newspaper on hand, for the times I need to discipline him. Ha ha!
Kathy, hang in there. You are percious. Enjoy your transition.
Neva, 'you my friend' are an amazing person. I try to walk like you as you walk like Christ. Thanks for the example.
