Thoughts on Today's Verse...

Want to find a really good woman? Look for one that honors and reveres the Lord with all of her heart, soul, mind, and strength and loves her neighbors as she loves herself (Matthew 22:36-40). Appearance, physical strength, and even personality can change and degrade. A woman whose heart is anchored and enlivened by the presence of God in her life will be a lifelong blessing to others and a woman worthy of our praise, and the praise of her Father in heaven!

My Prayer...

Father, once again, I want to thank you for the important women in my life who have helped shape my faith and guided me to you... (Please pray by name for godly women who have blessed you!)
Father, please help me to value godly women in ways that bless them, honor you, and build up your Church. In Jesus' name, I pray. Amen.
