Wife on Fire Challenge {Week 4}: Support & Encouragement for Wives on Fire

Wife on Fire 2018 {Week 4} Feature Image

Wow, I need to take a moment to express my gratitude for all of the Wives on Fire that have joined in on this year’s challenge. Thank you for being a participant in Country Wife Chronicles second annual Wife on Fire Challenge!

Regardless of if you’ve breezed through the past four weeks or if you’ve struggled to get each week’s task accomplished, you have made it to the end. You have reached the final week of the Wife on Fire Challenge!

However, just because this month-long challenge we’ve had going on over here at CWC is coming to an end, that doesn’t need to mean that its time for you to stop being a Wife on Fire. My hope is that the Wife on Fire Challenge inspires and encourages you all to reignite the flames in your marriages all year long, just until you need another dose of encouragement this time next year! 🙂

If you participated in last year’s Wife on Fire Challenge, then you have a pretty good idea of what it means to be a Wife on Fire. And if you’ve been following along here on the blog for any length of time recently, then you know how passionate I am about intentional marriage and making the effort when it comes to strengthening your marriage into a Marriage on Fire.

The Wife on Fire Challenge is all about creating and strengthening a faith-founded and grounded marriage.

With that thought in mind, we took some time to select a Marriage Mission Verse last week. This week we are going to look to the greatest example of love, God, to show us what unconditional love looks like.

What does it mean to be a Wife on Fire?

Well, for a much, much deeper meaning behind the meaning of a Wife on Fire, you may want to check out last year’s post. Let’s just say I got a little dictionary happy. 🙂

However, here we are kicking off our second annual Wife on Fire Challenge and I think it’s important to know what you are getting yourself into.

So, first of all, if you are here reading this blog post on the topic of the Wife on Fire Challenge, I’m gonna say there’s a decent chance you fulfill the role of a wife.

But, are you a Wife on Fire?

Reigniting the Fire with Intentionality

How do you reignite the passion in your marriage?

With all that Wildland Man and I’ve been through lately, I can sometimes feel like the passionate love that brought us together is a bit lacking. Now, don’t get me wrong, my love hasn’t faded, in fact I’d say it’s definitely grown deeper over the years.

And in the trial of infertility we currently find ourselves in, I’ve honestly never felt closer to the man I married. I feel deeply and intimately connected to him.

Marriage on Fire

Ok, y’all, in the interest of being fully transparent, I have to admit to you that this week’s post was a hard one to get up on the blog.

Not because it needed extra creativity or photo and graphic work done. Not because it was emotionally draining to put into words. Not because the topic was super technical or difficult to explain.

Nope, none of those more obvious reasons at all.

The reason this post was difficult for me to get published can be attributed to one thing: anxiety.

And, no, not anxiety about this particular post…just general, somewhat debilitating, anxiety.

‘Tis Fire Season

Well, y’all, fire season is officially upon us. Wildland Man just got home from a long detail away and I’ve been hearing from other fire wives out there seeking encouragement in the trenches.

So, I thought this would be a good time to gather up all the wildland fire resources here on the blog into one neat and tidy, little blog post. That way any new wildland fire wives seeking connection and support for this fire life we live will have everything in one spot.

We are quickly winding down our blogiversary series here at CWC. The month of March will kickoff a whole new series for y’all, but I’ll be getting to that a little later on.

I’ve been having so much fun with this series; I hope y’all are enjoying it as much as I am! I have thoroughly appreciated taking a look back at the history behind CWC, the story of our launch, and sharing some lessons learned over the past year, as well as a few of my favorite blogs to boot.

I still can’t believe it’s been one year. The time has gone by so fast. I feel like we’ve covered much ground over the past year, yet I feel like I have even more to share!
