This is well said! I am trying to think if there is any example in scripture where a man or woman was called by God where the other spouse did not support them. …
Hmmmm….what do you think?
Esther was called by God in a manifestly unsupportive atmosphere
(I started blogging and my thoughts on Esther are
here )
Abigail was called by God to go against her husband. (1 Sam 25)
Sapphira lied to the Holy Spirit in order to “go along with” her husband (Acts 5)
That said, I’m with you Cheryl. I am a hyper-submissive. I could not be in any ministry where my husband was going to be the enemy, on the attack, tearing me down, discounting, invalidating… I figure if GOD is REALLY calling, he has his ways… HE’ll send along a great big fish if HE has to. 🙂
