Introduction
Good morning.
Today we are so very blessed to come to church and celebrate Mother’s day.
Many people say Mother’s day is for the mommas, and it is.
It is also a time to thank God for the very gift of motherhood.
It’s a time to say thank you for the gift of children we have been given.
Many think when God made mommas, He did some of His best work.
The word momma is a sweet sweet word.
The home I was raised in, and now the home I see wife Amy raising Zoe in, I would have to agree.
I found some interesting answers to why God created moms, according to a second grader:
How did God make mothers?
He used dirt, just like the rest of us
God made my mom just the same like he made me.
He just used bigger parts
What ingredients are mothers made of?
God makes mothers out of clouds and angel hair and everything nice in the world and one dab of mean.
Why did God make mothers?
To Help us out there when we are getting born
She’s the only one who knows where the scotch tape is
We are blessed to have the gift of motherhood from God.
I can honestly say that when you find a good righteous mother you will never find the true depth of her hearts love.
I believe is it bottomless.
I understand not everyone had the mother we will be talking about this morning.
I understand things happen.
This should not stop us, especially to our mom and our moms to be, from being grateful for all our moms do for us.
This morning were’re going to look into some of the traits of a godly woman found in
Pastoral Prayer
The book of Proverbs comes to a close with the addition of this poem about the woman of valor.
A careful reading of the passage shows that her value is derived from her character of godly wisdom, which is beneficial to her family and to the community as a whole.
We see the author of our text using the words “who can find?”
This is considered a rhetorical question.
These words does not mean no one can find such woman, but that she is of surpassing value to those who do find her.
The author here uses a metaphor at the end of verse 10.
The author uses the word rubies.
During this time, rubies are considered to be a precious gem.
This is echoed in:
Instead of rubies, today we might consider - why not the use of diamonds instead of rubies.
You’ve head the slogan “diamonds are a girls best friend.”
The reason is diamonds were not yet known in the at this time.
From the authors point of view, it becomes clear that she is rare, exceedingly precious and attractive.
She is precious because she uses here strength, ability, wisdom totally and selflessly for others.
She is considered a valiant wife who is a gift from God.
We could sum this up as, wisdom is more precious than rubies, but nothing you desire can compare to her.
A truly good wife is the most precious treasure a man can find.
When a man is blessed with a gem like this, he and his wife become partners.
One of the fundamental traits of a partnership is value and loyalty to one another.
And, that is what we find in verses 11 and 12.
The husband has “full confidence” in her in every area of life.
He has confidence in her good sense, her fidelity and her industry.
The second half of verse 11 supports this.
The husband does not lack anything necessary.
Verse 12 is why she has value and his confidence in her is defined.
Lets unpack verse 12 for just a moment, because it is densely packed.
The verse shows her full commitment to her husband.
It shows her commitment is true, constant, it’s not temperamental, it’s reliable.
This means she is a continuous source of benefits.
Her commitments don’t only stop with her husband.
Her commitments extend to a continuous source of benefits for her family.
Verses 13 through 15 speak to this.
Guys have you ever noticed how your wife is when she is shopping, whether she is shopping for groceries, clothing or other hose hold items.
I can tell you it an art.
She is there looking at all that is available to her.
She is absorbing the sounds around her, and all the different scents that are nearby.
Her finger tips have already touched the texture, although she has not yet touched the item.
The colors come into play.
Guys I want you know all of this happens instantly.
I can hear here some of you guys thinking.
Wait!
This happens instantly.
Yes it does.
It’s because everything is connected.
We can talk about that at our next marriage enrichment class.
That’s what’s happening in verses 13 and 14.
She seeks.
Which means that she “find” or “selects” what she needs for the family.
Wool and flax are the raw materials used for making clothing.
Wool, the hair of sheep is used to make warm clothes; flax, a grass-like plant, gives soft fibers for making cooler clothes.
She adds variety to the lives of her family by trading goods produced at home for food and merchandise the household cannot itself produce (v.
14).
She travels with joy so that everyone in the household can enjoy the fruit of her enterprising spirit.
She wisely shops for what is best that she can afford.
How many of you have enjoyed a meal or some lovin’ from the oven when you came home, after your wife has been cooking something.
Isn’t nice!? It’s an awesome feeling when she puts the needs of others in her household ahead of her needs.
This reminds me about book of Ruth.
In the book of Ruth you hear about two women, Ruth and Naomi.
Naomi had fallen on some unfortunate circumstances.
You could say she was a woman who tasted the cup of heartache and bitterness.
Ruth’s and Naomi’s journey took them to Moab.
Moab had offered them a way to reboot their life.
Naomi pleaded with Ruth to return and not follow.
Ruth said no way.
“I’ll go wherever you go and live wherever you live.
While in the land, Ruth was able to find work.
But in doing so, Ruth traveled grain fields.
As she worked, she brought grain home.
And, on one occasion, a gentleman named Boaz, gave Ruth some barley to take back to Naomi.
While Ruth worked she chose to live the Naomi.
You see Ruth chose the needs of Naomi over her own.
Ruth chose not to return home in search of finding a husband.
Ruth chose to go where Naomi chose to go.
She chose to find work and help provide for the needs of the home.
