Even though social media is at an all-time high with today’s views and disguising a Proverbs 31 woman, she is still present. It’s important to know exactly who that woman is. A Proverbs 31 woman isn’t just about what she does, but who she is. The passage is not there as a checklist, it is the embodiment of a virtuous woman, a woman of valor.
Below are examples of a Proverbs 31 woman:
- Trustworthy
The heart of her husband trusts in her, and he will have no lack of gain. Proverbs 31:11While all qualities are important in a relationship, trust is the most important in a friendship, relationship, and kinship. Woman was created for man and it is important that the same trust instilled in our Lord is carried through to one another. It’s important this virtue is present when getting to know your match. - Compassionate
She does him good, and not harm, all the days of her life. Proverbs 31:12Nurturing relationships may not come easy for some but, women or men shall not carry a burden too big that will hinder the growth of their relationship. If you care for one another, as you care for yourself, your relationship can blossom in to something wonderful through patience, communication, understanding and prayer. - Hard-working
Give her of the fruit of her hands, and let her works praise her in the gates. Proverbs 31:31Before you become one, there is two. Stay motivated, driven and all that hard-work will pay off personally and in your relationship. - Wise
She considers a field and buys it; with the fruit of her hands she plants a vineyard. Proverbs 31:16Women are natural producers and with experience, knowledge is gained to support the household in all ways possible.
These are only a few virtues of the many that can be found throughout Proverbs 31. Studying this passage with your match can make a great way to bond and connect even further in Faith. Again, Proverbs 31 isn’t a checklist or a standard, it is a way of life.
Charm is deceitful, and beauty is vain, but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised. Proverbs 31:31
