This blog is written by myself Jessica Louise Adams and my new friend Natasha Gracey from Belfast.
We met on Instagram and she's such a inspirational and genuine women. We hope you enjoy this written piece of encouragement.
The Proverbs 31 woman is simply our blueprint: this should not scare us, but encourage us.
When we follow her blueprint we can break it down into 2 categories:
These include physical action and personality traits.
The actions she does (making clothes, acquiring land, etc) show that she is skilled, and not the entirely domestic slave women are frequently "deemed" as being. She travels, so she's not "trapped in the kitchen"; she is resourceful and hardworking, earning money and providing for her family.
Recently we both attended Cherish 2014 Conference and one thing that stood out to me [Jessica Louise] is that the proverbs 31 women ideally arises early in the morning, I personally find this very hard, we can try our best to get up early but sometimes we can just doze off into a deep sleep. Arising in the night darkness doesn't mean you have to get up in the middle of the night, just don't sleep your life away and waste your time on this beautiful planet! And also you have a responsibly to pull you and your family out the darkness with the help of God!
In terms of personality traits she is trustworthy, generous, compassionate and outreaching. She has self-respect and she is wise and caring, and her root is in God.
As women we all need a strong firm foundation to grow from, this is God, we need to get our concrete set and then flourish in a growing connection with Jesus.
The Proverbs 31 woman is a wife, mother, professional, homemaker and helper to the hurting - she is the ultimate well-rounded individual.
In today's time I [Jessica Louise] personally think people being nice and helpful towards me aren't genuine, because of the evil in the world has caused me to just expect nothing of people(which I'm trying to develop into having more grace around people and within my relationships with others).
Christianity does not belittle women or make them insignificant, but empowers them. A godly woman is rare to find and worthy of praise. If that's not empowering and challenging then nothing is.
As women we need to basically shape up, not be scared of your problems, and simply be brave... We have everything we need to be brave and a beautiful women of The Lord so use our tools in which The Lord has equipped up and be nice to each other and overall serve the Lord.
Be amazing in The Lord.
