Virtuous Woman

One of the things that I have struggled with, is trying to find the the person I want to spend the rest of my life with. And I know that sounds cliche, especially because I am at a young adult age, but at one point I actually thought I had found the person that God had wanted me to be with. We went to the same church, went to the same school, and even shared the same faith, but as time went on I knew that maintaining a relationship was a lot more than sharing similarities. Moving forward to this moment, I have learned a lot more about how maintain relationships, and more importantly I have a come across a passage of scripture that foretells the qualities to look for in woman in regards to having a virtuous wife.

Proverbs Chapter 31 in the Bible is well-known for its description of an exemplary wife, and many have referred to it as the “virtuous woman” passage. The passage includes a list of characteristics that depict a woman who is hardworking, industrious, and wise.

The chapter begins by describing the importance of a virtuous wife, explaining that she is more valuable than precious gems and earns the trust and respect of her husband. It goes on to describe how this virtuous woman is a compassionate and caring person, who works hard to ensure the needs of her family are met.

She rises early to make sure her household is taken care of and stays up late to work on her various projects. She is skilled in many areas, such as cooking, sewing, and managing her finances. She is also known for her generosity and kindness, extending a helping hand to those in need.

The virtuous woman is described as a person who is confident in herself and takes care of her appearance, but also recognizes that true beauty comes from within. She is respected in her community and has a positive impact on those around her.

Overall, Proverbs Chapter 31 celebrates the hard work and dedication that women put into their families and communities. It serves as a reminder that a virtuous woman is not just someone who has accomplished tasks, but someone who has a heart of gold and seeks to make a positive impact in the world.
