The life of a pastors wife is one of great honor and blessing. It is also a life that endures a great deal of persecution from the enemy. Our spiritual enemy knows that if he can discourage, distract, or divide the pastors family, he can inevitably affect the church in that same way. Divide and conquer....steal, kill, destroy...thats his game. Always the same game, but he uses new doors, new people, new circumstances.
I am blessed to have an amazing wife that loves the Lord with all her heart, soul, and mind. She knows the truth of His Word and it is planted in her heart and has deep roots that penetrate every part of her being. She is a passionate worshipper who makes my heart smile every time she sings a note. Most of the time she lives in the background changing diapers, making me dinner, or bathing 3 kids by herself so I can be out ministering to others or running the church. She is the invisible prayer warrior in the day-to-day tasks. She is always praying over me, praying over our kids, and praying over our friends. While she may be behind the scenes, she is in the front lines of ministry and unfortunately, the firing lines of the enemy. I am so thankful that she stands firm against the enemy with her full armor on! She is amazing!
It's because of my wife,
I lead stronger.
She helps me invest in my team.
She gives me insight into my strengths and weaknesses.
She encourages me.
She is precious to me.
This Proverb describes her well:
Who can find a virtuous and capable wife? She is more precious than rubies! Prov 31:10
