Devotions from this Saturday morning... The Proverbs 31 woman. Such a wonderful example. Proverbs 31:17 & 20 stuck out to me this morning. Scripture says she girds herself with strength [spiritual, mental, and physical fitness for her God-given task] and makes her arms strong and firm. In v20 the Word says she reaches out her hand to the needy [whether in body, mind, or spirit]. The former must come before the latter, or there is nothing to give, there is no strength to extend to others. More importantly, at the heart of these verses lies the importance of adhering to the instruction of God, as a result of heartfelt devotion to Him. This is valued far above rubies or pearls Proverbs 31:10
