Because She Is A Woman......


Because she is a woman who fears the Lord

and respects His commands, the Proverbs 31 woman

conducts herself in a fashion that is above reproach.

Not because of man, but because she walks in

submission to a Power greater than herself.

She respects the handiwork of God by treating

the people He created with respect and honesty.

From her servants to the merchants she trades

with, to her own children and husband, each are treated

with kindness, humility, and grace.

Every person she interacts with on a daily basis is

liberated to feel as if they are important to her no matter

how great or small their contributions.......

Hi Shug, Love those words on that poster. As women, most of us would do so much for others... BUT--each of us is different... We need to understand and respect others since not everyone does as much for others as we might.. Let's not judge....

Hugs,
Betsy

Sometimes we expect others to do as much as we do - that's not much of a gift is it?

A good meditation. I, for one, stopped long ago expecting anything from anyone. Then it is always a wonderful surprise when I get offers of help.

Hi Shug!

I love Proverbs 31! I think it's so important to magnify our calling as a woman - not only at home, but wherever we go, and with everyone we meet!

What a thought provoking quote this morning!

Hugs,
Barb

Oh, the Proverbs 31 woman, whom I fall so far short of emulating. *sigh* This is a great synopsis of her. I will keep trying!!! Blessings to you.

Sunday Thoughts.

  Good Sunday Morning.... Look how cute my newest little gnomes are.  They are kinda small, but they fit perfectly at the end of the TV cons...
