The Preachers Wife

I saw this and found it fitting for Thoughtful Thursday. This pastor wrote this for his wife on Pastor’s Wife Appreciation Day. May we all strive: pastor’s wives, preacher’s wives, and Christian wives to be a woman that feareth the Lord.

A Woman That Feareth the Lord

By: Pastor Tim Cruse

Pastor of Shining Light Baptist Church- Monroe, NC

A woman that feareth the Lord,

She shall be praised.

Of her love, service, and sacrifice,

We all stand amazed.

A woman that feareth the Lord,

She shall be held in high esteem.

We could never make it without her,

A fitting tribute we deem.

A woman that feareth the Lord,

She shall be respected.

Her name, her honor, her person,

Must always be protected.

A woman that feareth the Lord,

She shall be thanked.

She is a lady among women,

Very highly ranked.

A woman that feareth the Lord,

She shall be cherished.

Her influence will be felt,

Long after she’s perished.
