Read the Proverbs 31 passage below and note the beads in parenthesis that co-ordinate with the verses.
A wife of noble character who can find? She is worth far more than rubies (red beads).
Her husband has full confidence in her and lacks nothing of value. ( heart-he loves her)
She brings him good, not harm, all the days of her life. (golden bead-reminder of sun-days) She selects wool and flax and works with eager hands.
She is like the merchant ships, bringing her food from afar (blue bead-a reminder of ships on water)
She gets up while it is still dark (black bead); she provides food for her family and portions for her servant girls. She considers a field and buys it; out of her earnings she plants a vineyard (green bead-growth). She sets about her work vigorously; her arms are strong for her tasks. She sees that her trading is profitable, and her lamp does not go out at night. In her hand she holds the distaff and grasps the spindle with her fingers. She opens her arms to the poor and extends her hands to the needy.
When it snows (crystal bead), she has no fear for her household; for all of them are clothed in scarlet (red bead) She makes covering for her bed; she is clothed in fine linen and purple (purple bead). Her husband is respected at the city gate, where he takes his seat among the elders of the land. She makes linen garments (off white bead) and sells them, and supplies the merchants with sashes. She is clothed with strength and dignity; she can laugh at the days to come. She speaks with wisdom, and faithful instruction is on her tongue. She watches over the affairs of her household and does not eat the bread of idleness. Her children arise and call her blessed (b for blessed); her husband also, and he praises her;, "Many women do noble things, but you surpass them all." Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting; but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised. Give her the reward she has earned, and let her works bring her praise at the city gate.
Thanks for looking-and be blessed!
