The Holy Spirit dropped this verse (Proverbs 31:26) in my
spirit and I believe that some sisters, including me, need to hear it.
We've read about the Proverbs 31 woman over and over
again - how she is always on point etc. I have come across a lot of women who
really do all they can to be like that woman. They cook, clean, work, fix stuff
around the house etc. That's not bad in itself. Please just learn to take a
break once in a while and don't wear yourself out, okay?
Anyway, you'll find among a good number of these women
what I like to think of as "stress-induced harshness". I am shocked
to hear and read what they have stored in their minds under the "virtuous
woman" exterior. It is really scary, in my opinion.
I am all for doing one's part for a successful marriage.
However, please do not sacrifice your salvation and spiritual well-being for a
"successful" marriage. Please do not end up like Sapphira. The Lord
will help us all.
Please spare time from your busy day to fellowship with
God, study the Word and commune with the Holy Spirit. They have a way of
relieving the stress and sweetening your heart and tongue.
Whatever the burden you're carrying, please take it to
the Lord in prayer and LEAVE IT WITH HIM. He is the Ancient of Days, so I'm
certain He has taken someone else through that route successfully before. Your
case is not beyond His capability. You'll finish strong, in Jesus' Name. Cheer
up and create an atmosphere of love and kindness around you.
Have a blessed and productive day.
