Proverbs 31 Woman, Day 17

Her children arise and call her blessed; her husband also and he praises her. Lets be honest here. Don't we love it when someone acknowledges all that we do. It is a feeling of appreciation and love. Her children clearly see what she does for them and they know its a blessing. I would also like to point out that she must have raised these children with respect. Not many children are mature enough to realize what mothers/women do for them. So to have your children realize your worth is amazing.

Her husband knows that without her he would lake spiritual things in his life that keep him balanced and whole. Have you heard the saying "Behind every good man is a strong woman". We were born to nurture and care for. We seem to have taken these words and transferred them into societies standards which are "Girl, don't do for him, he better do for you". Yet we were created to love, honor and obey. The husband of the blessed woman knows his strength and love come from her continued prayer over him. He knows her hands help keep his life in order. I can picture him praising her with faithful words on his tongue because that is how she herself speaks to him.
What a beautiful family, praising each other and understanding why a woman of God is power to her family.
Children/Men, I hope you're reading this and I pray that you tell your mother/wife how much of a blessing she is. Lift her up and praise her.
