p.31:15

Proverbs 31:15 She also rises while it is yet night, And provides food for her household, And a portion for her maidservants.

Ok, so this is very interesting to me. The fact that a wife, a mom especially, NEEDS to wake up while it is yet night. I see how this is true. With so much to do in the never-ending "to do" list; and most importantly, to have a personal time with God every morning, a woman must indeed plan her waking up. She is to rise with enough time to have her personal time with God, and be ready for the day ahead.

The part that says that she provides food for her household may or may not imply, depending in family, that she works to "bring home the bacon" and be able to help buy groceries, but most importantly, I believe, just the loving attitude of serving her household with a meal.

The third statement: And a portion for her maid servants, brings a smile to my face... why? because maidservants are mentioned, meaning, the requests of a wife, if needed, and possible, for help is suggested... and what wife/mom can't use the help :) Ok, but also, most importantly is, that we should treat everyone with respect, and genuine and pure love. Don't mistreat others for what they do for a living, remember James 2:1-6 "My brethren, do not hold the faith of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Lord of glory, with partiality. 2 For if there should come into your assembly a man with gold rings, in fine apparel, and there should also come in a poor man in filthy clothes, 3 and you pay attention to the one wearing the fine clothes and say to him, “You sit here in a good place,” and say to the poor man, “You stand there,” or, “Sit here at my footstool,” 4 have you not shown partiality among yourselves, and become judges with evil thoughts? 5 Listen, my beloved brethren: Has God not chosen the poor of this world to be rich in faith and heirs of the kingdom which He promised to those who love Him? 6 But you have dishonored the poor man. "

... Be God's representative to all :)
