John 1:1 “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was with God in the beginning.” This is a phenomenal verse. This verse begins with the exact 3 words of the beginning of the Bible. The Word–Jesus–was present when God created our universe. If that is true, and it is true, this verse not only states Jesus is God, but it is also the beginning of Christmas. John loved his Savior. He is bringing us to the beginning to show each of us the magnificence of everything he is going to tell us in the rest of his book.

Proverbs 31:30 “Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting; but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised.” Youth and energy and beauty which come while being young are wonderful blessings. Maturity and age steal these youthful attributes. Walking and exercising become more difficult while youthful beauty slowly fades. However, faith becomes stronger, more in depth and wisdom becomes solid like a boulder. God reminds each of us to praise especially women who portray a faith of strength and the wonderful personality of faithfully serving their Creator. Have a great weekend.

Proverbs 31:26 “She speaks with wisdom, and faithful instruction is on her tongue.” The attributes of an outstanding wife, mother and grandmother are to bring excellence to her family and to those she comes in contact with. The same is true of a husband, father and grandfather. We all share in the responsibility of not only attaining wisdom, but also passing that wisdom on to future generations. God, in this verse, wants us all to know the high value He places on women who serve Him courageously and faithfully.

Proverbs 31:25a “She is clothed with strength and dignity…” Proverbs 31, the second half, should be studied by every teenager who has thoughts of ever getting married. Parents should set their children down and teach the characteristics of an outstanding wife. And children should learn by example. Their mother, if she has the traits God describes in this chapter is to be cherished by her children and by her husband. She is a blessing to all. Sincerely thank God if you have such a mother, grandmother or wife.

Proverbs 31;10 “A wife of noble character who can find? She is worth far more than rubies.” Which would you rather have–(think about this for a little while) –a never ending balance on your debit card or a loyal, faithful, God-fearing and wise spouse?The one allows you earthly pleasures which we seemingly work hard to gain and the other is a gift which one could never work hard enough to buy. One produces friends so abundantly that life is one party after another and the other is contentedness and peace creating a home of character, honor and love. All of us would/should conclude the spouse is a far more valuable treasure. What is your choice?
