And what compliments you gave me. I don't feel up to such standards, really :) But thanks anyhow, you yourself are everything you mentioned about me. Worry not about the banner although Pyromaniac does have a much more interesting banner :D. But it's the content that counts at first.. :) Hi Jessica,

Ha ha ha :D I’ve got to do something about that title banner. It’s so plain. I hope soon I could replace it with a lovely banner graphic image. About the quotes, I collected them from my reading in books or online. When I see one that I like, I try to keep them in file. You may enjoy a slideshow I created a while back in my other website: <a href="http://solochristo.net/hall_of_faith.php" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Hall of Faith</a>. The slideshow displays photos of our great "heroes of the faith" along with their quotes underneath the pictures. You may also like to check out Puritan <a href="http://www.puritansermons.com/previous.htm" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Quotes of the Week</a>. Tons of gems there. <blockquote>Thank God for what Spurgeon said here (thanks to you, too, Jess!) that helped reinforcing my ‘revised’ understanding on this particular subject :D !</blockquote> Oh, you’re very welcome! I’m glad you like it. By the way, from reading your comments before, you seem very gracious and well-grounded in good teaching, too... and I’m sure you’d make a good minister’s wife, if that’s what God calls you to be in the future. :) Grace, you wrote:

My last boyfriend was a minister and back then I was as fool as could be for being so worried in how to support him. I kept comparing myself with other people and forgot to fully-utilized my very own gifts that God had actually specifically gave to me in order to support him :) But hey, I'm glad that my path was rough back then because otherwise I wouldn't have learnt my lessons that well :) I'm now a lot more at ease with my own gifts and quite done in comparing myself with others.

First, I typed up all the quotes that I like (I collected them) and then I use a plug-in to generate them randomly, so that when a page in my blog loads, a random quote from my list appears. :) I hope you like the quote feature! :) Hi Grace, the quotes are actually generated randomly.

I have to say that his insightt on the Pastor's Wife's role is spot on. Yep, Spurgeon was quite exceptional. I have to say that his insightt on the Pastor’s Wife’s role is spot on.
