Her children rise up and bless her;
Her husband also, and he praises her, saying:
"Many daughters have done nobly,
But you excel them all."
Charm is deceitful and beauty is vain,
But a woman who fears the LORD, she shall be praised.
Give her the product of her hands,
And let her works praise her in the gates.
~ Proverbs 31:28-31
I love Proverbs 31! In my tradition, the husband sings it for the wife on Friday night at the Sabbath table :) I love the fact that it talks about a woman who is multi-skilled, resourceful, highly intelligent and independent yet devoted to her family and faith. A fine balance to strike!
