I want to encourage women in ministry roles with truths from God's Word and stories that will allow them to know that life is real in these "fishbowls" we feel we live in. May our love for Jesus shine through and allow us to impact a hurting world.

Why the fishbowl theme
I realized when I titled this blog "Wisdom from the Fishbowl" that perhaps some would not know why. As a preachers kid and pastors wife, there are times one feels that their life is viewed at all times by others. We sometimes feel like a fish in a fishbowl or sometimes like we live in a glass house. There were many days that I did not enjoy living in the fishbowl and trying to live up to the many expectations of others. I am thankful to the Lord that he has helped me to realize the value of the experiences I had growing up. The experiences and lessons learned has helped me now to minister to the pastor's wives and their families that I am now priviledged to encourage. I am hoping that if I can help others to look on the situations of ministry with humor, then it can help ministry go much better.

New to blogging
Well, I am trying something new. I have been looking for a way to encourage other preachers kids and pastors wives so I thought why not try this.
I can't say I will do this well but at least I am trying something new.
I am also still learning how to set up everything and how to do pics and everything so hopefully the blog will look better over time.
Well, better go.
