Do you remember the band White Lion? I’m surprised if you do; they didn’t really distinguish themselves from other bands of the 80’s. My husband and I jokingly refer to all hair bands of that era as “Great White Lion Snake.” They were heavy on the hairspray, spandex, and mullets (can’t believe those are back!!!) and light on lyrical depth. While White Lion did have a few hits, none survived past the decade. But there was one called “Don’t Give Up” that still lives on my workout playlist.
Dearest Sister in Christ (my younger one :) ) I wept with joy reading your message. You were Matt's REAL PRAYER WARRIOR when he was battling all he went through. It gave me the thought and questioned.. "WHY don't WE the family in Christ speak up and encourage those pastors who are weak, tired, weary? Our Pastors, our Shepherds of our churches, NEED our love, respect, friendship, encouragement not just during October. May God's people who read your post, humbly begin to SHOW and demonstrate our love for God's Shepherd's our beloved Pastors. . They are the ones that heard His call and answered saying "Yes, here I am Lord, send me...send me!" AND they went forth to do the will of our mighty Lord God. Our Lord blessed many of our Pastors with Godly loving wives who willingly shared their walk in the valleys and up on the mountain top. I use you, dear Christine, as a most Godly example. Being I have known you since you were very young in grade school, does not make me prejudice. I know what I see and what I hear with you at Matt's side. May our gracious Lord watch over all the wives also, that they may not grow weary from doing good. They are God's chosen people to serve Him in special, most loving, caring ways. I give to our risen ascended Lord all praise and glory for all pastors and their faithful wives. Thank you dear Christine for being who you are a most dedicated, loving wife , a true Godly example to all who know you. Psalm 9:1 " I will praise You, O LORD, with all my heart, I will tell of all your wonders. I will be glad and rejoice in You. I will sing praise to Your name, O Most High." Love, Ann Tolly
Thank you for your encouragement and prayers, dear Ann! You have been such a constant reminder to us of God's care and provision. We want to be like you and Lowell when we grow up. What a blessing you are to the Body of Christ! Love and hugs from Brisbane! 🥰🥰
