Here are some characteristics of a godly woman--check off the ones that describe you:
- Gracious
- Virtuous
- Sober
- Chaste
- Prudent
- Discreet
- Peaceable
- Patient
- Kind
- Faithful
- Joyful
- Good
- Merciful
- Pleasant
- Ready
- Honorable
- Benevolent
- Keeper at Home
- In Subjection
- Quiet Spirit
- Modest
- Obedient
- Loves husband and children
- Teaching the younger women
Now before you get discouraged, understand this--
I know that we fail in different areas on this list from day to day (a very real reason for our need for Christ) but we should NOT look at this list as a reminder of our failures but instead with HOPE, OPTIMISM and ANTICIPATION of what we have to look forward to. He will help us to become these things. We cannot do all of this in our own strength. It is only because of Him that this can take place and we must remember that God has not finished his work in us yet!
Be encouraged ladies, as you look and pray over these characteristics. Be sure to thank Him for the work He is about to do in your life as He helps you daily to become more like the godly woman described above.
