Title: The Good/Perfect Wife
Scriptures: Proverbs 31:12-13

God’s Message/Promise/Commands:

Amazing day with Jesus!  Proverbs 31:12 - 13 says...

She does good for her husband all her life.
    She never causes him trouble.
13 She is always gathering wool and flax[c]
    and enjoys making things with her hands.

Today, we will look into 2 verses that define a good/perfect woman.  She does good for her husband all her life and never causes him trouble. Does this mean that she tolerates all the abuse of her husband?  I don't think so because I believe that a wife who does good for her husband all her life and the husband knows and believes this, will not give any reason for her husband to abuse her.  So it is not enough that as a woman/wife, we do good for our husbands and not cause him any trouble - it is equally important that the husband knows and believes this to be true as well.  This can be achieve with honesty and action.  The 2nd verse speaks of a woman who always gathers wool and flax and enjoys making things with her hands.  This tells me that this woman is not lazy but she is resourceful and creative at the same time.  So there's no time to sit around and waste precious time for her, she can find things to do but not just anything to do, but things to do that are productive and again with the purpose of doing good for her husband and not causing him any trouble.

May we strive to become the perfect woman/wife for the Lord.  Let's always do good for our Groom, Jesus, and never cause Him any trouble.  Let us be resourceful and creative with the purpose of doing good and glorifying God!

Happy Thursday!

Prayer:

Lord Jesus, I am Your fiance and I can't wait to be Your wife.  But Lord, help me to become the good and perfect wife suitable for You.  Help me to have the passion to do good for You all my life and never cause You any trouble.  Help me to be resourceful and creative to be productive for You.  All these I ask in You Name, Jesus, Amen!
