Over the past six or seven years, it has been a real Highlight to get to do more ministry together. With my role at Johnson Ferry, your unofficial role as helpmate in the work has been even more wonderful.Working together has given us many unique opportunities to pass on truth to others. And nothing energizes me more. It is one of the key things that make doing Kingdom work fun.
Granted, ministering together has it's pitfalls, as well. I can think of nothing else in our twenty years that has amplified our differences more. You want to plan. I'm fine with "going with the flow." Somewhere in the middle is a happy medium.
Perhaps that's why ministering together has grown us in our marriage. We have been forced to deal with our differences and learn to work through them with grace and love. Beyond that, having you by my side in ministry is one of my greatest joys. So it benefits us at several different levels.
I cannot wait to see what God will do in and through us as we continue to make ourselves available to Him. You're going to make an awesome little old lady in an RV, traveling around and coaching pastor's wives on how to be patient with the old coot. You'll know...you will have been married to this old coot for 5o years or more.
