Know What You're Asking For

I had to go to a church Friday night for a first lady night! It was so nice but the truth is, being a first lady is a hard job. Whether you are Michelle Obama or Danyelle Scroggins, if you have the title of first lady....you have a job. I know women who would love to be married to a preacher or a man of true distinction. Sometimes I wonder if they really knew what it was they were asking for.

I'm referring to the looking pretty at all times, going when you don't want to, socializing with people whom you wouldn't care if you've never met, saying "Yes", when you really want to say "Heck No", and oh how the list goes on. There is nothing easy about being the first lady of anything whether it's an official office or a church. You are truly required to do so much because to whom much is given, much is required.

Unfortunately, this is true in anything you're asking for. You had better know what it is you want and research the work that it involves. The old folks use to say, "Anything worth having is worth working for." Simply means that is you work for it you can have it and if it becomes yours, you have no choice but to work it. So to all of you who have gained husbands that require you to be his partner in every sense of the matter....work hard because if you don't, some jill come lately will be more than happy to take your place.

My prayers go out to all the First Ladies in the world. May God bless you richly and remember that your good works were already predestined by God that you should walk in them. And always keep 1 Corinthians 15:58 somewhere visible. Love you all

Be Blessed Danyelle
