my dream...

...is to be a woman like the one described in Proverbs 31. Church on Sunday got me thinking. There were so many things i did wrong in my relation ship with Jeremy. So many things that i look back and feel ashamed for. i know i can't go back and change that so i vow to not make the same mistakes again. when i do get married, i promise to be the wife God calls me to be. i vow to be respectful and honor my husband as a wife of Noble Character. 

Epilogue: The Wife of Noble Character Proverbs 31: 10-31

*A wife of noble character who can find? She is worth more than rubies. 
*Her husband has full confidence in her and lacks nothing of value. She brings him good, not harm, all the days of her life. 
*She gets up while it is still dark; she provides food for her family and portions for her servant girls. 
*She sets about her work vigorously; her arms are strong for her tasks. 
*She sees that her trading is profitable, and her lamp does not go out at night.
*Her husband is respected at the city gate, where he takes his seat among the elders of the land. *She is clothed with strength and dignity; she can laugh at the days to come.
*She speaks with wisdom, and faithful instruction are on her tongue. 
*She watches over affairs of her household and does not eat the bread of idleness. 

*Her children arise and call her blessed; her husband also, he praises her: "Many woman do noble things, but you surpass them all." 

*Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting; but a woman who fears the LORD is to be praised. Give her the reward she has earned, and let her works bring her praise at the city gate.
