Proverbs 31 Woman

Proverbs 31 Woman
by Sandi Hoot

Behold she has unique eyes,
A smile one of a kind
Though her hands are wrinkly and dated,
still beautifully divine
Each freckle on that face makes her more unique,
But her inner beauty is what we all should seek
Proverbs 31 woman works with eager hands,
So pleasantly involved and working with a plan
She wraps herself in humanity giving to the poor,
She’s clothed in strength and dignity and
never wanting more-
She serves God with all her loving heart and contagious soul
She seeks his will for her life and let's God have control
She teaches her children the ways of the Lord
Patient and soft-spoken and living in accord
She loves her lads and trains them in the way they should go
Knowing that when trouble faces them they shall rise up and never stay too low
She cares for her body consuming healthy foods
She uses hospitality to minister to those around her she's always in good moods
Proverbs 31 woman is what we all should be
A virtuous woman for God's word stands the test of time and lives in you and me
