Anyone care to comment on the unique challenges of pastors wives?
Years ago, I had not given the matter much thought but one day I heard a well-known pastor's wife express about the expectations that people had of her, etc. She stated, "Who's praying for me?" My heart went out to her. Later the Lord told me to remember to pray for pastors wives.

DANCE OF FIRE
I wrote the content on this blog with sincere and holy intentions with the knowledge that I had at the time... We live, learn and amend...as errors are exposed and more truths are revealed...
Only GOD is perfect. It's vital that you seek the Lord to expose any errors that you've embraced. Please ask Him to expose any areas of darkness to you and for what is necessary to do to dispossess what's NOT of truth.

Flames of fire dance joyfully as dreams of fervor conjure up images of red hot passion for the gusto of life.
Sizzle, spark, explode -
Fireballs light up the sky. Wow! a thunder flash with a clap -
The flames are vivid with the awesome glow of orange colors blended with yellow highlights that accent the blaze.
This display is the bomb torched with a rocket plan. Such rapture has lit our fire. We are dynamite on this journey.
Come on fire, fall on us. Pour your liquid potency. Ignite our souls that we may be engulfed with magnified intensity.
Blow up our hearts. Dance with us....

Pastors wives...
ReplyDeleteI would say that pastors wives, and families need our prayers just as much as pastors. Their families can come under attack just as much as other people that we pray for, especially if they are preaching according to the Word...
ReplyDeleteI've often wondered who holds up the ones who hold us up. It's never too late to begin, right?
ReplyDeleteYes, Prayz Him Today: Welcome to you, sister in Christ!
ReplyDeleteEver since, those years ago when I heard that pastor's wife ask, "Who is praying for me?" I have had particular sensitivity to the wives of pastors. I understand that we all have issues...but I am particularly sensitive as the Lord leads. Indeed He led me on the issue of pastors wives.
Prayer:
Father, in the name of Jesus, it is truth that you love us all. My prayer now, though, is that you send more people to minister to the wives of pastors. Please send more people to love on them and Lord let their husbands be mindful that their wives are royal diadems and crowns of glory(Isaiah 62). Envelop Your first lady daughters, please, in Your warm embrace and tenderly remind them that they are not forgotten by You - ever. Reward them privately and publicly for their faithful services to You,their families, friends, and those whom their husbands shepherd. Thank you, Lord,- Amen

Ruth Graham was asked if she ever considered the idea of divorce. She reportedly answered that she had never considered divorce, but the thought of murder had crossed her mind.
I think that expectations are changing, but traditionally the pastor's wife was expected to teach Sunday School, type the bulletin, and play the piano. These days, most pastor's wives that I know are working, because a pastor's salary just doesn't pay the bills.
This was sent to me via e-mail from Pastor G:
