“The New Testament describes the characteristics of a "virtuous widow" who is qualified to receive help from believers. This woman's description seems to parallel the miraculous, poured-out life portrayed by the Proverbs 31 woman. She does not live for her own pleasure but is well reported for good works, bringing up children, lodging strangers, washing the saints' feet, relieving the afflicted, and diligently following every good work. How does she accomplish all of this? "She trusts in God and continues in supplications and prayers night and day" (1 Timothy 5:5-6,10). She lives a supernatural existence, accomplishing incredible things without stress and exhaustion because she makes prayer the foundation of her life.

“The Proverbs 31 woman is a star not because of what she does but how she does it---with valor. So do your thing. If it's refurbishing old furniture---do it with valor. If it's keeping up with your two-year old---do it with valor. If it's fighting against human trafficking...leading a company...or getting other people to do your work for you---do it with valor. Take risks. Work hard. Make mistakes. Get up the next morning. And surround yourself with people who will cheer you on.”

“Firstly, as a wife (and maybe mother, grandmother, or guardian of children) our role is to be the keeper of our homes. Let’s not spend time debating whether or not wives and mothers should have jobs, but instead agree that our priority needs to be our family.”

“Being trustworthy like the Proverbs 31 woman during the time of winter preparations means we are making sure our family is equipped for the changing seasons. It means they rightfully rely on to keep them fed, warm, and safe to the best of our abilities.”
