The Pastor's Wife . . .

Today, as I continue my thoughts in honor of that special group of ladies called "the Pastor's Wife", I want to share a few quotes that were a special blessing and help to me during my years in the parsonage.

     "If our petitions are in accordance with His will, and if we seek His glory in the asking, the answers will come in ways that will astonish us and fill our hearts with songs of Thanksgiving."

     "You make a living by what you get; you make a life by what you give."

     "Four things to learn in life: 
To think clearly without hurry or confusion;
To love everybody sincerely;
To act in everything with the highest motives;
To trust God unhesitatingly."

"There is always enough time in a day to do God's will."

"In all states and conditions of life, God's grace is sufficient for us."

"I have only myself to give to others --- let me be liberal!"

"God will take care of all the consequences of our being obedient to Him."  (I love this little quote, and I have found it to be true.)

"Trust God in the dark; honor Him with unwavering confidence."

"Obeying God is most easily accomplished when we immediately move to do what He asks."

"Trust Him with everything, and find the joy that comes when Jesus has His way."

"A holy life does not live in the closet, but it cannot live without the closet."

"Be careful what you see, for the object of your eye becomes a part of thee."

"A good and faithful wife doubles a man's pleasures and divides his cares."  (This is another one of my favorite little quotes, and I believe it is a very important one.) 

"In God's eyes, I'm never lost in the crowd."  (I love this one too --- What a sweet blessing and comfort to know that my Heavenly Father sees me every moment of every day!!)

"To know God's will is man's greatest treasure; to do His will is life's greatest privilege!"

"Faith is the bird that feels the light when the dawn is still dark."  (My heart rejoices when I read and meditate on this beautiful little quote!  I'm so thankful we can soar like the little bird until our faith takes hold and we know the answer is on the way!)  God bless you!
