A Woman that Fears the Lord
How a Godly Woman Should Spend Her Days!

It’s wise to be continually evaluating our daily lives to see if they line up with what Scriptures says a woman should be doing. There is always so much to be done in our homes but I've also read so many commands in the New Testament of good works that the Lord wants His women to be doing FROM their home. A woman's has a ministry to her husband as his helper. Her children are her ministry, also. These two must not be neglected. I've found over the years, though, that the other examples and commands we are given from scripture can be fulfilled with our children and from our home. It takes the Lord's guidance to keep our priorities straight. We need His guidance!

Scriptures on a Godly Woman's Duties

Our Duty Towards our Husband:

* My body belongs to my husband, also. 1 Cor. 7:3-5
* I am to be a fruitful vine. Ps. 128:3
