Proverbs 31: 13-27
There is a list in these verses that characterize the virtuous woman, here is the list:
She seeks...She works willingly
She shops for food and cloth
She rises early in the morning to care for her family and staff
She buys land and plants crops
She dresses well and exercises for strength
She stays up late
She sews and spins and weaves and knits
She gives to the poor and needy
Her household is warm and family clothed appropriately for the seasons
She dresses beautifully
The Virtuous woman cares for her family and for others, but does not neglect herself. She is a good woman who will go to great lengths to provide for the household. Her husband and her children profit from her goodness and she never tires from doing good.
This is not only a virtuous woman, it is the manifestation of the character of GOD. GOD is willing to sacrifice His highest and His best for the good of others, but He never sacrifices His own integrity - GOD is obedient to His Word and His Covenant - when GOD speaks it is always true.
