I have been in full time ministry for 26 years. Most days I really enjoy what I do...BUT there are a few days when I wish I had a "REAL" job. Any of you ever been there?
I have read some books on being a Pastor's wife, but can't find a ton out there. I was recently looking for an "older" woman to show me the way. You know, Titus 2:3-4, Older women teach the younger? When it hit me...I AM THE OLDER WOMEN!!!
Needless to say it was a sad depressing day. I ate extra chocolate, exercised, and took a trip to walmart for new anti-aging cream! Then I heard God say, "Be an Example". " Teach those younger some of the things you learned the hard way, because no one taught you. "
So my blog will be lessons I have learned and still learning. I am hoping to encourage and challange anyone who reads, but I am a firm believer that you are NEVER to old to learn. I would love to hear what God has taught or is teaching other's in ministry and what resouces have truly helped you.
Thanks for reading.

I am looking forward to larding from your blogs and life lessons Shelley! And for the record, you do not need anti-wrinkle cream or whatever it is that you went looking for at Walmart!
