Proverbs 31: 10-31 The Proverbs Woman

I was raised by this passage of scriptures. This is and

always has been my moms favorite passage of scriptures

and she taught it to me in word and actions every day of

my life. I heard these scriptures so much in my life that I

can still to this day recite them word for word from

memory. The proverbs woman is a hard example to liveup to.

Chapter One

I thought I was the perfect proverbs woman years

ago when I received a very loud awakening from God

when my daughter was a toddler. Personally, I like to

have the religious channel playing on the television while

I work, so I can listen to preaching and praise throughout

the day. This one particular day I was going about my day

cooking, cleaning and taking care of my daughter.

The first program started and the preacher was

talking about showing respect to your husband.

I already respected my husband so I tuned it out.

The next program started and this sermon was once

again talking about how important it is to show respect

to your husband. Humph, I thought maybe they have a

theme their using on todays programming.

Several programs and several hours later they were

still talking about respecting your husband. I looked up

and said Lord I know you use different ways to get

through to people but it has been six hours, this woman

must be really thickheaded You know that small, still

voice people talk about when God speaks to them? Let

me tell you, I dont. The Voice I heard was very loud and

answered Yes she is very thick headed okay at this

point I wasnt sure what to make of this. He could not

possibly be talking to me! After a few minutes I began to

argue with God (by the way, you cant win an argument

with God) I responded with, I always treat my husband

with respect. This argument continued through the rest

of my day and well into the night. I then informed God

that when Vince came home I would ask him if he

thought I have ever been disrespectful. I was going to

prove God wrong.

We sat down to dinner later that night and I told

my husband about my day, about all the

programming. The whole time he was smiling. I then

told him about my argument with God and I asked

him if he thought I was disrespectful toward him.Waiting for an of course not, you are a wonderful

wife. Instead I got this, do you want an honest

answer.

What! I couldnt believe this! Sometimes when you

are being sarcastic it comes across as beingdisrespectful he said. I was sure I was being gained up

on, and in no way had I ever been disrespectful toward

my husband.

I vowed to pay very careful attention to everything I

said and how I said it. Talk about conviction, I didnt

make it through the night without catching myself with a

sarcastic tone. I monitored this for a couple weeks and

realized just how often I was doing this. It has been a

hard road and I am still very careful to watch both my

attitude and my mouth every day. I will admit it has

been a struggle but it has improved my relationship with

the Lord and with my husband. Respecting my husband

more has made our relationship stronger.

These scriptures have taught me many things. A

Proverbs woman takes care of her family and her

home without complaining. A proverbs woman is the

first one up and the last one to bed every day. Aproverbs woman lends her hand to the less

fortunate. A proverbs woman is strong, encouraging,

she does not waste time, and she is hard-working,

wise, joyful, respectful and compassionate.
