Charm is deceptive and beauty fleeting; the woman who fears the Lord is to be praised. Proverbs 31.30
There is a lot of great wisdom to be found in Proverbs 31. Striving to be a woman of God is not an easy task, especially in this world. Teaching at an all girls school and working with the young women of the parish has really made me think about what it means to be a woman of God and there is only one example that come to mind. Mary. Our Lady and Queen of Heaven. Mary Mother of God. Through her perfect example we gained salvation. Her yes allows for us to have a relationship with her Son. She is the one woman the devil is the most afraid of and the one woman we should try to emulate.
Mary Mother of God, Pray for us. :)
