She Brings Him Good, Not Harm.


Proverbs 31--
God has really been speaking to me through this Chapter.

Before I was married, I had this gigantic plan.
I was going to be a wonderful wife!
Charming, beautiful, hard-working...
Breakfast every Morning? Of course!
Laundry done promptly as baskets are full? Done!
In a wonderful mood even when I don't feel wonderful? Absolutely!




....Not.

I can be grumpy, a lot.
I can be real stubborn.
I can be selfish.
I can be naggy.
I can be messy.
I can be...well...unattractive.
Okay, okay...the list could go on but let's not let it.

As I griped mentally while vacuuming & swiffering the floors after work, I was reminded of this Chapter and felt God give me a little nudge. "Just do it. It'll make him happy."

...And that makes me happy.

God may be on to something there.... :)

Are you being the Wife You're called to be?
