Proverbs 31

Deacon Matthew Pierce:

Give her of the fruit of her hands; and let her own works praise her in the gates. Proverbs 31:31 KJV https://bible.com/bible/1/pro.31.31.KJV

The book of proverbs begins with the command to fear the Lord, and ends with the picture of a woman who fulfills this command. Her qualities are mentioned throughout the book, hard work, fear for God, respect for spouse, foresight, encouragement, care for others, concern for the poor, wisdom in handling money. These qualities when coupled with fear of God, lead to enjoyment, success, honor, and worth. Proverbs is very practical for our day because it shows us how to become wise, make good decisions, and live according to God's ideal.(excerpt Life Application Study Bible KJV) Jesus Christ 365
