Why we can smile toward the future in the face of all storms…….


Proverbs 31:25-31
"Strength and honor are her clothing; She shall rejoice in time to come. She opens her mouth wish wisdom and on her tongue is the law of kindness. She watches over the ways of her household and does not eat the bread of idleness. Her children rise up and call her blessed. Her husband also praises her;  Many daughters have done well, but you excel them all. Charm is deceitful and beauty is passing, But a woman who fears the LORD, she shall be praised. Give her of the fruit of her hands, and let her own works praise her in the gates."

I feel like she smiles in her heart, toward the future, because she fears the LORD. She rests in His inerrancy. Proverbs 31 is from a mother to her son Lemuel, with is said to be Solomon's pet name. We can point to Bathsheba, Solomon's mom, as the mom whose life worked out these words while becoming, a woman who fears the LORD. How blessed we are to be able to smile toward the future with our hearts smiling past today's storms………resting in His inerrancy……hearts smiling toward……and beyond…because "God cannot lie" Titus 1:2b….

God help us, help every woman walk in the wisdom of the word, fearing only You, resting in Your inerrancy. Thank You that You cannot lie and Your promises always come true. Thank You for Jesus and our very present Helper, the Holy Spirit Himself. Amen.
