Being Virtuous and Excellent
Is it possible?
Proverbs 31:10 says being virtuous is worth more than rubies. What a nice thought. How does one be perfect in their moral character?
I know I'm not perfect and never will be. The Scripture states it's difficult to find a woman of noble character. My question is, Lord how do I attain such virtue?
The answer is...we don't have to. The Holy Spirit does this for us. We can strive for excellence in our daily lives but only He molds us into the character He wants us to have...Godly character. Our worth is not measured by what we do or what we say. It is measured by what Christ did for us on the cross.
By understanding who she is, the Proverbs 31 woman excels in her daily life by providing food, clothing and shelter for her family. She is not concerned for the weather, (something for me to consider during hurricane season), feeds not only her family but her workers, and provides for the poor. She works late into the evening and rises early before dawn so she must be in good health. Her husband and family call her blessed.
This makes me understand that once we place our total trust in God everything else falls into place.
Striving for excellence in our homemaking is something we must do. Everything we do we must do for the Lord. Your relationships will improve with the encouragement you receive from the Lord.
Start your day in the Word. Take each day as it comes with a to-do list in hand and mark the completions one by one. You'll be amazed at how much you can accomplish.
I'd love to hear your thoughts and ideas about daily organization. Please leave a comment. Tomorrow we will continue with scheduling and menus.
