The Proverbs 31 Woman

I subscribe to a great group about living by Titus 2 and Proverbs 31. It is a daily email that talks about things we (women) can do to live by how the Bible wants us to live. This is today email for all my women readers!
==================================================================

The Proverbs 31 Woman

The qualities that are found in Proverbs 31 should not be thought of as a threat, but much rather as God’s pattern of a fulfilled, joyous, and dedicated woman whose goal is to be for God’s glory. Note the following guidelines:

1. She is loyal. To her husband (10-12).
2. She is faithful in her home (13-16).
3. She is tireless in her responsibilities (17-19).
4. She is generous toward the needy (20).
5. She is fearless about her circumstances (21-23).
6. She is diligent in business matters (24).
7. She is prepared for the future (25).
8. She is wise in her utterances (26).
9. She is dependable in daily duties (27).
10. She is praised by her family (28-29).
11. She is beautiful in her conduct (30).
12. She is appreciated by her neighbors (31).

If we love to follow God’s Word in true obedience, then each of us can be "a crown to her husband" (Proverbs 12:4), and "to the praise of His glory" (Ephesians 1:12).
