“Many women have done excellently,
but you
surpass them all.” ESV
We all absolutely love to hear someone
saying something nice about us. I know I personally love to hear
about it third person (I'm horrid at responding to compliments and
such-something I am working on daily) while others simply adore
standing ovations. Either way, Woman 31 well deserves her praise and
adoration from her husband. He is proud of her, she has done beyond
excellent. I remember striving in school for excellence and here
Woman 31's husband declares she has surpassed excellence. Wow!
I truly doubt Woman 31 has lived her
life and been the woman she's been through these previous verses
simply to hear her husband boast about her. Woman 31 IS who she IS
and the bonus has been that her husband is proud of her and glad she
is his! I want my husband to be more than glad that I am his!
Not a wife or mom? If we were to apply
the lifestyle principles of Woman 31 to our daily lives our bosses,
managers, friends, and family would take note and would have no
choice but to at least ask, “Why?”, and likely commend us for jobs
well done and initiative taken. And on the chance that the people
directly surrounding you don't notice right away, please remember
that GOD sees our hearts. GOD knows and his opinion of us is of much
more value than any earthly praise or comment.
