Day 304: She Brings You Respect

Proverbs 31:23

Her husband is greatly respected when he deliberates with the city fathers.

Principle

It takes a Proverbs 1 through 30 man to have a Proverbs 31 woman.

Proverbs 31 has been promoted to women as the model of a godly wife and mother. She is described with such admirable qualities that she is undoubtedly an attractive person. Any man would want to be married to this woman — some of us believe we are.

However, let me also point out that Proverbs is written from man to man. So, the Proverbs 31 woman is married to a Proverbs 1 through 30 man. He is a man of wisdom. He is a faithful man and hard-working. He is the kind of man who not only attracts a Proverbs 31 woman but also a type of man who cultivates her remarkable gifts and draws upon them.

So, before we read this Proverb and measure our wives compared to her, let’s count ourselves from the previous thirty chapters. Are we living up to the standard of authentic manhood, which our advisor teaches?

Remember:

Be the kind of man who attracts this kind of woman. Click To Tweet
