It’s a tangible example for those who desire to walk in Christ-likeness as a Proverbs 31 Woman. It says, She speaks with wisdom, and faithful instruction is on her tongue. (NIV) As I got to thinking about that today my sister Betty came to mind. Betty has been my go-to for wisdom over the years, on matters ranging from the seemingly simple – like how to perfectly glaze a ham – to the more complex…

My Closing Thoughts on Resilience Last Tuesday we talked about the choice we are given to either be bitter or better in the face of adversity. As I got to thinking about that today, I was reminded of a story from Exodus Chapter 15. In this passage, we find the Israelites three days into the wilderness, tired, thirsty, and desperate for water. Their hearts sank, however, when they discovered that the well at Marah contained bitter, undrinkable water. Maybe you haven’t walked through a desert, thirsting for water, but if you’re anything like…

Are you ready for Chapter 4 of our Bible study on ‘The 7 Virtues of a Proverbs 31 Woman?’ This week, our focus is on resilience. Resilience is the ability to adapt to difficult or stressful situations, emerging stronger on the other side. A virtuous woman might not have the ability to solve her problems, but she has faith in the One Who does. She knows that every broken piece of her life is safe in the hands of her Savior and Lord. She knows that God specializes in miracles. He replaces…

My Closing Thoughts on Kindness If you’ve ever felt your heart light up from an unexpected act of kindness, you’re not alone. Just this week, I was touched by a simple interaction that reminded me of the pure, transformative power of kindness. I found myself in the grocery store, crossing paths with a woman whose spirit just shimmered with warmth. Her welcoming smile reminded me of something Karissa shared in our video series this week – a call to slow down, truly see others, and cultivate a heart of sincere kindness. Inspired by…

The story challenges us to examine our own attitudes toward others and asks us to consider what it means to be a…

My Closing Thoughts on Selflessness The other day, I came across an incredible video that beautifully captures the essence of selflessness and reminds us of the timeless wisdom found in Scripture. It was a race that took place on December 2, 2012, known as the Burlada Cross Country Race in Spain. This race stands out because of an extraordinary act of selflessness displayed by one of the athletes, Ivan Fernandez. As Ivan was nearing the end of the race, he noticed his fellow competitor, Abel Mutai from Kenya, slowing down and checking his…

Are you ready for Chapter 2 of our Bible study on ‘The 7 Virtues of a Proverbs 31 Woman?’ This week, our focus is on selflessness. When we choose to value others higher than ourselves, we’re putting the needs and interests of others first. Throughout the week, we’ll draw inspiration from Sarah, who made personal sacrifices to faithfully support her husband, Abraham, on their God-ordained journey. We’ll also look to Jesus, who selflessly gave of Himself time and again. Join me on this journey as we uncover the true meaning of…

Proverbs 31:15-16 says, She gets up while it is still night;she provides food for her familyand portions for her female servants.She considers a field and buys it;out of her earnings she plants a vineyard. (NIV) This couldn’t be any further from who I am, especially now that my children are grown. Some days, you’ll find that I’m still awake in the wee hours of the morning, immersed in a Bible study, finishing laundry, or washing my dishes. I love planting flowers, but a vineyard?…
