1/22 A Foundational Wife

 

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

Proverbs 31:10

 Her children arise up, and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praiseth her.

 

Proverbs 31:28

Happy is the man who finds a good wife.  God says that He has  receipe for a good wife and list those attributes in the passage today.  When you find a good wife she is worth far more than rubies.

Bill Cosby does a skit talking about the things he would do for his wife.  He say that there is no mountain high enough where he would not climb for his wife.  There is no ocean large enough where he would not swim for his wife.  Then he says that there comes a time when all of that stops and you begin to change.  Someone may say,  "Mr. Cosby your wife is on the mountain."  What is she doing on that mountain?  Then he calls the daughter to tell the mother to get off of that mountain.

We need to keep our marriage fresh.  God says remember the values of your wife and how precious she is.  Look at all the things she does and then treat her right.  A good husband should always praise his wife.  Whoever finds a good wife really finds a good thing.

 

A wife is more valuable than your favorite thing.  Praise her instead of the thing.
