10
[b]A wife of noble character who can find? She is worth far more than rubies.
11 Her husband has full confidence in her and lacks nothing of value.
12 She brings him good, not harm, all the days of her life.
13 She selects wool and flax and works with eager hands.
14 She is like the merchant ships, bringing her food from afar.
15 She gets up while it is still night; she provides food for her family and portions for her female servants.
16 She considers a field and buys it; out of her earnings she plants a vineyard.
17 She sets about her work vigorously; her arms are strong for her tasks.
18 She sees that her trading is profitable, and her lamp does not go out at night.
19 In her hand she holds the distaff and grasps the spindle with her fingers.
20 She opens her arms to the poor and extends her hands to the needy.
21 When it snows, she has no fear for her household for all of them are clothed in scarlet.
22 She makes coverings for her bed; she is clothed in fine linen and purple.
23 Her husband is respected at the city gate, where he takes his seat among the elders of the land.
24 She makes linen garments and sells them, and supplies the merchants with sashes.
25 She is clothed with strength and dignity; she can laugh at the days to come.
26 She speaks with wisdom, and faithful instruction is on her tongue.
27 She watches over the affairs of her household and does not eat the bread of idleness.
28 Her children arise and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praises her:
29 “Many women do noble things, but you surpass them all.”
30 Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting; but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised.
31 Honor her for all that her hands have done, and let her works bring her praise at the city gate.

Sebenarnya injil Amsal udah sering banget
baca bolak-balik. Tapi kali ini rasanya ingin berbagi di blog. Nah, karena
amsal berjumlah 31 pasal jadi minimal sehari wajib baca 1 pasal dari Amsal.
Kalau dipikir-pikir wanita di amsal ini benar-benar hebat dan wanita idaman
pria banget ya. Yang dia lakukan sangat memberkati khususnya untuk keluarganya,
suami dan anak. Wanita yang gambar dirinya sudah pulih, dewasa secara jasmani
dan rohani, yang tidak mementingkan dirinya sendiri dan wanita yang super kuat.
Wow, keren :)
Eum, Memang untuk masuk dalam dunia
keluarga masih jauh karena harus menyelesaikan tanggungjawab yaitu perkuliahan
dan karir dulu. Tapi menuju hal itu nggak mungkin instan dan dalam semalam bisa
dipelajari, harus ada latihan dan tentunya hubungan yang semakin dewasa bersama
Tuhan.
Bagaimana seorang wanita memiliki sifat
yang kuat dan mampu mengelola dengan mengatur :
- Keuangan,
- Waktunya,
- Perkataannya,
- Hidupnya,
- Hubungannya
- Dan terhadap diri sendiri.
Dan tentunya tidak hanya jadi berkat untuk
keluarga sendiri, wanita di amsal memiliki hati atau berbelas kasihan kepada
orang yang membutuhkan. Menjadi kebanggaan dan dapat diandalkan anak dan
suami. Ya, masih banyak kelemahan, kekurangan dalam hal yang jadi point diatas dan
tentunya yang bisa menilai kita, tidak 100% dari diri sendiri, bisa orang yang
ada disekeliling kita yang menilai.
Yang paling terpenting adalah memiliki
kerinduan dan komitmen untuk hidup dalam kekuatan Tuhan setiap hari dan seumur
hidup. Tenttunya hal diatas akan mengikuti :)
So, be prepare and try to be better
everyday ladies :)
