But two, not only have they both gone above and beyond in helping us move, but they took my sick hiney to the doctor this morning, went in with me, then went with me to take the boys to school. Then my daddy stayed here and tended to house stuff and Daxie, while my sweet mama loaded up with me and drove to Big Spring to see a gazillion patients. On top of that we get home and they help us witth Dax, who busted his head open and had to get stitches. SO...for her to come home and do all that she is doing, well...it brings tears to my eyes and makes my heart literally burst because of their love.
And with every complaint that flows from my mouth her words are the exact opposite. She has not complained onece, actually she has smiled and made me feel like she was thrilled to be doing this. My daddy has been the same way!!
It's in this moment right now that I think of how much she really does hold so many character qualities of the Proverbs 31 Woman.
I am so thankful for her and my dad! They have stopped everything else to come help us through all of this craziness we have going on.
I know that the Lord is pleased with them. Oh, brethren I desire to have these type of qualities. Qualities that reflect the Lord. I desire to have actions that paint the perfect picture of Jesus' love and servants heart.
My deepest prayer tonight is that Christ will bless them for all the work they do for Him.
10-31 A good woman is hard to find, and worth far more than diamonds.Her husband trusts her without reserve, and never has reason to regret it.Never spiteful, she treats him generously all her life long.She shops around for the best yarns and cottons, and enjoys knitting and sewing.She’s like a trading ship that sails to faraway places and brings back exotic surprises.She’s up before dawn, preparing breakfast for her family and organizing her day.She looks over a field and buys it, then, with money she’s put aside, plants a garden.First thing in the morning, she dresses for work, rolls up her sleeves, eager to get started.She senses the worth of her work, is in no hurry to call it quits for the day.She’s skilled in the crafts of home and hearth, diligent in homemaking.She’s quick to assist anyone in need, reaches out to help the poor.She doesn’t worry about her family when it snows; their winter clothes are all mended and ready to wear.She makes her own clothing, and dresses in colorful linens and silks.Her husband is greatly respected when he deliberates with the city fathers.She designs gowns and sells them, brings the sweaters she knits to the dress shops.Her clothes are well-made and elegant, and she always faces tomorrow with a smile.When she speaks she has something worthwhile to say, and she always says it kindly.She keeps an eye on everyone in her household, and keeps them all busy and productive.Her children respect and bless her; her husband joins in with words of praise:“Many women have done wonderful things, but you’ve outclassed them all!”Charm can mislead and beauty soon fades. The woman to be admired and praised is the woman who lives in the Fear-of-God.Give her everything she deserves! Festoon her life with praises! Proverbs 31
