Proverb of the day - Proverbs 31

Proverbs 31:10-31

King James Version (KJV)

 10Who can find a virtuous woman? for her price is far above rubies.
 11The heart of her husband doth safely trust in her, so that he shall have no need of spoil.
 12She will do him good and not evil all the days of her life.
 13She seeketh wool, and flax, and worketh willingly with her hands.
 14She is like the merchants' ships; she bringeth her food from afar.
 15She riseth also while it is yet night, and giveth meat to her household, and a portion to her maidens.
 16She considereth a field, and buyeth it: with the fruit of her hands she planteth a vineyard.
 17She girdeth her loins with strength, and strengtheneth her arms.
 18She perceiveth that her merchandise is good: her candle goeth not out by night.
 19She layeth her hands to the spindle, and her hands hold the distaff.
 20She stretcheth out her hand to the poor; yea, she reacheth forth her hands to the needy.
 21She is not afraid of the snow for her household: for all her household are clothed with scarlet.
 22She maketh herself coverings of tapestry; her clothing is silk and purple.
 23Her husband is known in the gates, when he sitteth among the elders of the land.
 24She maketh fine linen, and selleth it; and delivereth girdles unto the merchant.
 25Strength and honour are her clothing; and she shall rejoice in time to come.
 26She openeth her mouth with wisdom; and in her tongue is the law of kindness.
 27She looketh well to the ways of her household, and eateth not the bread of idleness.
 28Her children arise up, and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praiseth her.
 29Many daughters have done virtuously, but thou excellest them all.
 30Favour is deceitful, and beauty is vain: but a woman that feareth the LORD, she shall be praised.
 31Give her of the fruit of her hands; and let her own works praise her in the gates.

A PEEK INTO MY PRAYER JOURNAL

 Hi, friends! I'm back! I just needed some time to get my thoughts together, and to focus on what's truly important.

   I have been asking myself a certain question lately : What's number 1 in my life? Is it God? . If i were to honestly and truly answer this question, the answer would be NO, and i don't like that. I love my Lord so much, and He deserves to be # 1 in my life.

So, here's a peek into my Prayer Journal:


November 4, 2011
   
    Dear Lord,
   
  Whew! I am tired but so blessed! Thank you for blessing me! You are so special to me! I want my life to honor and glorify your holy name! I want to make a commitment to journalize every day, and to pray throughout every day. Give me a contrite heart , so I will truly be sorry for my sins. I lover you very much and I want that to be clearly evident in my life!
  
  Please help me to be diligent in my worship, family, hobbies , and school. Please help me to do my best in everything! 


   I LOVE YOU! 
                  Love,
              Your Princess   




Maybe, I will make " A peek into my prayer journal" a regular on my blog!
