SISTER WISDOM : build a better life

Icon

say to wisdom, "you are my sister." {prov 7.4}

Proverbs 31 in First Person

Because we need to start believing we can be what we strive to be.

I am worth more than precious jewels.

My husbands trusts in me with good reason. I do not cause him to lack that trust. I am good to him.

I gather the supplies I need and do my work willingly. I bring in the best value for my household.

I get up early; while it is still dark outside, I am planning for my household.

I make wise business investments and use the profit for further investment.

I strengthen myself physically, so that I have energy and ability to do my work.

I give appropriate value to what I produce. I don't sell myself short. I finish what I start, and even in my sleep I'm thinking of new ideas. I acquire the skills and tools I need.

I find those in need and give to them; I bring them into my life.

I don't fear difficult or lean times, because I am prudent. I prepare what we need before we need it.

I clothe myself attractively. I'm no frump. I know how to be appropriate for the occasion.

Because I show such respect for my husband's leadership, other people notice and respect him, too.

I have high standards and I do not accept less than excellence in what I do, for my household, for my business, and for myself personally.

I am strong and clothed in honor. The future looks good to me. I am not overwhelmed by changes, even when they are unexpected. I rejoice at the richness of my life.

I choose my words with wisdom and I use a tone of kindness.

I work hard and faithfully to manage my household. I am not idle. I am aware of the importance of my position.

I receive the praise and blessing of my family graciously. I do not boast of my successes. I fear the Lord.
