Happy Birthday To Jeana

Today is May 13th, the birth date of my wife, Jeana. Born in Bonham, Texas, to her parents who served as a pastor-wife team to local churches all over Texas and New Mexico, Jeana has blazed the trail herself of serving as the wife of a Pastor. Her dad who she loved dearly was confined to a wheelchair just months after his retirement and resides now with the Lord in Heaven. Her Mom lives in Bridgeport, Texas, about an hour just northwest of Fort Worth. Jeana has one brother who lives in Lubbock, Texas.

Throughout the years, we have done several things on Jeana’s birthday. Today will be a "somewhat normal day," as we really celebrated her birthday on Sunday with our family along with Mother’s Day and last night celebrated Josh’s 29th birthday. Nick is in a doctoral seminar at Liberty Theological Seminary this week, so Sunday served as a combination celebration for Jeana. In fact, if you have not read my personal blog about Jeana that was posted on Monday, I hope you will.

Jeana’s responsibilities in life are many and great. The demands upon her as the wife of a pastor, the challenges of our dual campuses and keeping up with all that involves, serving our entire growing family, plus keeping our household going, pretty well dominates each day. She is a very busy woman. I guess this is one reason we both enjoy the beach so much. We can relax, get away, listen to the waves, read, and just talk. It is always a blessing when we have that privilege.

Therefore today, say a prayer of blessing upon my wife, Jeana. She is a humble, gracious, and loving woman to all people. Motivated deeply by her gift of mercy and clothed with humility, she is one special person. She loves being a pastor’s wife, even though at times it is challenging. Please pray for her today, that God will bless her much!

One more time, Happy Birthday Jeana!
