Medical Wives

This past year, I have had the immense pleasure of being in a Bible study with other medical wives. I have felt beyond blessed by this amazing group of women who have gone through it all in terms of kids, residencies, fellowships, moving away from friends and family, away rotations, on and on and on.

I have been in so many good Bible studies over the years, but I've never taken away as much as I've taken away from this group. I remember the first time I heard about the Bible study, I thought, Thank goodness! There needs to be a group for prayer and support over medical wives! And the first time I came, I remember that I wanted to collapse in tears. I was overjoyed!

Understanding is a powerful thing, and it felt so refreshing to be with other women who understood what I was going through. This year, we read through The Power of a Positive Wife, which is a book that I would highly recommend to any wife. More than anything that I gleaned from the book though, I watched the women around me and how they conducted themselves as moms and medical spouses, and it inspired me (and continues to inspire me) to be a better person. I am so grateful that God put these precious women in my life!
