PROVERBS 31 WOMEN

What a beautiful day!
The sun is shining the birds are singing .
God has given us another day to live and to praise him!


I was reading about the Proverbs 31 Women this morning and in the devotional it mentioned about this very capable woman is ultimately praised not so much for all she accomplishes as for one thing: She fears the Lord. The woman who is worthy of praise is not necessarily the one who does all her own sewing or is a great cook or is a natural beauty---- the woman who gets the praise is the woman who fears the Lord, That’s the target to aim for. Not outward beauty. Not a perfectly decorated home. Not even more intellectual knowledge or business acumen. Instead, aim for a bold, all-consuming love for God. Then you too will be worthy of praise.

Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting; but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised.
Proverbs 31:30
