A Wife of Noble Character??

A wife of noble character who can find? She is worth far more than rubies. - Proverbs 31:10

On a typical day my beloved husband can some home and find me with my hair pulled up tightly in a bun…possibly yelling for quiet. He may find me crying because I feel like a failure or even in a mood. And, yes, he finds me pretty and sane at times too…LOL. However, does he ever come home to a woman of noble character and does he find me worth more than fine rubies???

I hope so!

What does this mean?

Well, first, I think this is the definition of the entire Proverbs 31 woman. To simply this one verse, however… She is a woman who does not attack her husband with her own needs, wants hurts and crud the moment he walks through the door. She greets him and does her best to make HIM feel special, loved, accepted and appreciated. She is a woman who has character. She appreciates all that God gives her and puts her Daddy God first.

Am I this woman?

Honestly?

Most days, sadly, no… :( I am usually stressed out, over tired and annoyed. Not that I am a total shrew all the time. However, when I look at me and try to be as honest as I can about me, I see someone who needs an attitude adjustment, more one on one time with the Lord and to stop allowing life to change my moods!

So, my prayer is simple…

Daddy God, please help me to shine like the jewel I know you created me to be. Help me appreciate more, love more and see the negatives less. Help me to be a wife…woman…mother of noble character who will one day hear her children rise up and call me blessed! Thank you for your help, love and mercy! In Jesus Mighty Name, Amen.

How about you? What is your self evaluation? Do you need improvement? Ask God to help you! Be willing to MAKE the CHANGES…and guess what? You CAN! I CAN..WE CAN!

In Him,

O’ Dark-Thirty Has it’s Perks…

Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting; but a woman who fears the LORD is to be praised. - Proverbs 31:30

Our inner beauty is what is the most attractive quality in a woman. We can turn hearts when we have the love of Christ pouring out from the depths of our souls. Making God the priority in our life and falling in love with Him above all else is what will bring the kind of “Non-fleeting” beauty that the Proverbs 31 woman has. This kind of woman is praiseworthy!

Does that mean we ignore our outer appearance? Of course not! And that is what brings me to this post…

I have been in an on again off again battle with losing the final pounds protruding from my thighs and buttock region. I have the right method, it is a matter of getting back ON the wagon and REMAINING there! LOL! Well, I now have MAJOR motivation…

A few weeks ago, I put out feelers to find a sponsor to an upcoming conference in Nashville, Tenn. called Blissdom. I prayed about it. Left my desire with God. In less than a day, I got a reply of “YES, I will sponsor you!” I was ecstatic to say the least and thus began my need to remove the unwanted poundage…

You see, pictures upon pictures upon pictures are taken at these types of events and there is NO way on God’s green earth I am going to be “the fat lady” in the picture! ROFL! Nope. Not this girl!

So, Monday began my quest to be at least 30 pounds lighter by mid January.

O’ Dark-Thirty is an expression my good friend Nancy uses when referring to getting up at the crack of dawn…I think it is hilarious and stole if for this post!

How can there possibly be perks to getting up before the birds, sun and sane people??

  1. It is ever so quiet. No constant questions and “don’t touch mes” filling the air. Just me and the dark house.
  2. I am able to work out on my Wii Fit without feeling self conscience.
  3. I feel better for the day.
  4. I have already lost 2.5 pounds and LOVE the way I get ONLY encouragement from my Wii People! LOL!

Yes, it is only a few perks…however, those skinny jeans are calling my name and no pillow is going to hold me back!

Thanks for reading!

First Post

Hello! :)

I am very excited to start this blog. I have been praying and thinking about it for some time. You see, I am already the owner of a prominent Christian Mom site. However, this place will be different. Moms of Faith is a site for all Christian Moms from many places in life. It is written by several very wonderful women…not just me. Proverbs 31 Mom will be about my PERSONAL journey as a Christian wife, mother and business woman. It will be from only my perspective. Not that I do not pour my heart into, and share my life on MOF…LOL…this is just different. I will be even more open and share from several areas of my life from a Proverbs 31 perspective.

You see, I am on a journey to becoming all that God wants me to be and I believe that my starting point is digging deep into the Proverbs 31 woman. I will share all areas related to this woman…er…MOM! Including; noble wife, homemaker, influence, teaching (Titus 2), Motherhood, excellence, business, wisdom, devotionals, money, training up my children and more.

So, there you go! I look forward to where this brings me in my walk and how it helps all those who read! I hope that you are encouraged by my journey and all the failures and victories I will no doubt encounter and share with you!

In Him,
