Who can find a virtuous woman?

The biggest cut belongs to him who serves!
I was just cleaning my house, set the kids off for the weekend, they shure like to make a mess, my boy scatareth his toys, my gal dips her hand in jam and rubs it on the tv. Should i scream because i want order and give myself hell in trying to make them clean the mess? Neither are good tactics because i know as much as i am paying the rent, it is because of them i have a home. Home is different from house. I have resigned long ago to not buy the best furniture, or put dangerous trinkets to decorate the house because first is safety for them and comfort for me.

The home is for my kids not for me alone because i am in the office most times. My elder girls have grown tired of keeping the house tidy, i have educated them not to scream at the babies because if they want babies to listen to them they have to respect the fact that they are babies. The order in my house is that no one messes with my bedroom, thats my sanctuary. I keep the place empty, my bed and me no tv, only my laptop and me belong there. I put the grumpy guy on the couch :) well i know i need my peace to keep everyone happy, he isnt happy because he doesn't know how to behave. To be the Virtuous woman there are sometimes hard decisions you need to take. Who disturbs you from your duties you compartmentalise them.

Who can find a virtuous woman? for her price is far above rubies.

• 11 The heart of her husband doth safely trust in her, so that he shall have no need of spoil.
• 12 She will do him good and not evil all the days of her life.

If men dont realise that The biggest cut belongs to him who serves, rather than moping around the house looking for undeserved attention they should be giving and bringing home the food to be prepared. You lay demands on women??? then follow the rules too. You lay your bed works both ways, however we have selfish people so what do you do? Their place is on the couch. If he behaves there will be a sexy woman waiting for him every night. Grumpy is who is afraid to go out there and face the hunt. No woman should be responsible for bringing up another woman's child who is supposed to be an adult. Careful mothers your baby boy may only be a furniture for sex and then serially dumped.

• 13 She seeketh wool, and flax, and worketh willingly with her hands.
• 14 She is like the merchants' ships; she bringeth her food from afar.

A woman has talents and they are not limited to cleaning, the times dictate how expansive the scope of skills required to be a helper to him and the family, both immediate and extended, which includes friends, society and God.

• 15 She riseth also while it is yet night, and giveth meat to her household, and a portion to her maidens.

as Christ said man shall not live by bread alone but by the word that cometh from the mouth of God. I would like to believe that man here means human beings, and since woman is human, she also possesses the gift of wisdom which is often gotten from having to organise the home. She wakes up to give words of glory and lift the spirits of her household and friends alike.

• 16 She considereth a field, and buyeth it: with the fruit of her hands she planteth a vineyard.
• 17 She girdeth her loins with strength, and strengtheneth her arms.
• 18 She perceiveth that her merchandise is good: her candle goeth not out by night.
• 19 She layeth her hands to the spindle, and her hands hold the distaff.

I would presume it means she has a right to have her own property. Not for the sake of making the man feel small because lets imagine she dosnt know how to acquire strengths, when he dies will she be able to manage what he lives behind? Besides men have a tendency to manipulate people with comfort. I have seen parents who have killed their kids will by threatening to withdraw the comforts they have made their kids addicted to. CONTROL is a bad thing, it makes people weak and weakness is the root of all evil, comfort "money" breeds greed....... i am sure you can continue the thread of what habit is.

• 20 She stretcheth out her hand to the poor; yea, she reacheth forth her hands to the needy.

She helps everyone, and anyone who comes to ask her for help to the reasonable extent of what help is. She gives words and food, because not everyone who comes needs to feed their belly, but their hearts as well. What keeps people alive isnt feeds but food or then vice versa.

• 21 She is not afraid of the snow for her household: for all her household are clothed with scarlet.
• 22 She maketh herself coverings of tapestry; her clothing is silk and purple.

In a society where women dont have jobs they should create jobs for themselves or they will find their comfort in the brothel. Waiting for government? Well they cant do for one what they cant do for all.

• 23 Her husband is known in the gates, when he sitteth among the elders of the land.

a good woman every other man is in envy, there will  always be those who want what they see that has been taken for granted. No good woman is ever left alone.

• 24 She maketh fine linen, and selleth it; and delivereth girdles unto the merchant.
• 25 Strength and honour are her clothing; and she shall rejoice in time to come.
• 26 She openeth her mouth with wisdom; and in her tongue is the law of kindness.
• 27 She looketh well to the ways of her household, and eateth not the bread of idleness.
• 28 Her children arise up, and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praiseth her.
• 29 Many daughters have done virtuously, but thou excellest them all.
• 30 Favour is deceitful, and beauty is vain: but a woman that feareth the Lord, she shall be praised.
• 31 Give her of the fruit of her hands; and let her own works praise her in the gates.

For a woman to do this she cant possibly be tender and soft handed, all dolled up all the time. This is why strong women are single but not without family around her. The men dont understand what God has put together let no man put asunder. Do i need more to say?
I have strived to live up to the virtuous woman but was misunderstood to be an ambitious woman by those who know nothing of the word of God and have no understanding of life.

To those men who think they can run the state, try first being a woman. When you can run your home and honour the women of your home then you will have my vote. I am not a politician, nor do i aspire to it, but if i am called to duty i will serve as a virtuous woman, supporting he or them who want growth. I dont need to be on the mountain top to know that i am a leader of a household called Africa. Let everyone do their own bit at cleaning their home first from the rooms before they reach the parlour. If the kitchen is dirty and the house is clean you are only deceiving yourself. Where you cook, where you sleep is your sanctuary. When everybody is employed we can all have a fiest. For now there is little to hope for in progress if we have no foundation called family & self respect, where everyone is present and safe.

God Bless!
