The book of Proverbs gives us a lot of instruction on a lot of different subjects. One subject that can keep us in God’s wisdom is Godly Follower-ship. Who we follow; where we follow; how we follow are all spoken about in Proverbs. Here is one of them about a Godly woman:
Proverbs 31:10
An excellent wife, who can find?
For her worth is far above jewels.
A good women is not hard to fine if you look to God to provide her! God gives great women their greatness. The good qualities of a Godly women can only come from God. When you want to measure the greatness of a women it is those God given qualities that measure the longest and the highest. Today's world has its own measuring scale for great women. But, Solomon (who knew women) knew that the greatest measurement is the qualities only God can provide. It takes faith to know and trust God's sovereign will when it comes to finding a rare jewel. The value of a women is far above what we tend to value in life. God's gifts are special. They have no value on this earth. They have eternal value. God is not only able to provide a Godly wife, but is able to enable her to live Godly. The key is that you must desire Godliness before you desire other things from a spouse. If you desire other things more than a Godly wife, it won’t matter what she does. You will never be pleased with her. Although, God will be.
