As a Pastors wife you will have more opportunities to love deeper, forgive harder and be strengthened with might. In today’s world people are hurting more than ever. Everybody seems like they are walking around ready to just take something out on anybody, the Pastors wife seems like a great target. The reality is we really don’t know the extent to what painful experiences people are struggling with in their own lives. If people seem “mean” to you or seem to be short tempered then we need to ask ourselves what nightmare are they trying to wake up from to get back to reality? This does not justify bad behavior from believers in your church. Jesus commands us to love. Matthew 22 36 “Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Law?” 37 Jesus replied: “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’[a] 38 This is the first and greatest commandment. 39 And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’[b] 40 All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments.” Jesus said the greatest commandment is to love our brother as ourself. So moving forward, give yourself a “Heart check-up”, examine your heart for anything you may be holding against anyone. Be honest with yourself, if anybody has an opportunity to hold hurts it is definitely going to be us. People just can be unkind to the Pastors wife from time to time, lol. Keep in mind it is not always easy to forgive So for our sake let’s let go of all hurts and live a longer and healthier life.
