Womenality

I’m actually looking for a good verse from Bible to share today. So I tried my luck on Google and found these interesting and truly encouraging verses for and about us, women. I took these three verses from Proverbs.

Proverbs 11:16
A kindhearted woman gains respect, but ruthless men gain only wealth.

Proverbs 12:4
A wife of noble character is her husband’s crown, but a disgraceful wife is like decay in his bones

Proverbs 14:1
The wise woman builds her house, but with her own hands the foolish one tears hers down.

I’m a woman and I never regret every single realization of it.

Sometimes, we wonder why God is giving us with so much blessings. However, most of the times, these blessings, in the form of career opportunities are not good to the people we love. So we ask God why is he giving us such opportunities when in fact, it can hurt those people around us. This maybe very hard to accept but my answer is simple. Not all opportunities are GOOD Opportunities. Most of the time, it is there to test our strength, faith and love for other people. We have to look at opportunities as something that is always available but not meant to be grabbed all the time.

When you desire for something from your heart, you will certainly get it in God’s perfect time. He knows when it’s time to make a move so strengthen your faith and be patient. It will happen… I know. If you are currently facing a big challenge of whether taking a good career opportunity or not, pray to God that He will give you wisdom and an understanding heart.

For we brought nothing into the world, and we can take nothing out of it. But if we have food and clothing, we will be content with that. People who want to get rich fall into temptation and a trap and into many foolish and harmful desires that plunge men into ruin and destruction. For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil. Some people, eager for money, have wandered from the faith and pierced themselves with many griefs. ~ 1 Timothy 6: 7-10

One of the famous and widely used love quotes from the bible is:

Love is patient, love is kind.
It does not envy.
Love is never boastful, nor conceited, nor rude;
It is not self-seeking, nor easily angered.
It keeps no record of wrongdoing.
It does not delight in evil,
But rejoices in the truth.
It always protects, trusts, hopes, and preserves.
There is nothing love cannot face;
There is no limit to its faith, hope, and endurance.
In a word, there are three things that last forever:
Faith, hope, and love;
But the greatest of them all is love.
– 1 Corinthians 13:4-7

But I would like to also emphasize this:

Let us not love with words or tongue but with actions and in truth. — 1 John 3:18

The most tragic part of losing love is blaming it with “love”. Love is the greatest feeling. It has always been us who overuse it.
