Proverbs
11:22 Like a gold ring in a pig’s snout is a beautiful woman without discretion
Discretion
is defined as, “the quality of behaving or speaking in such a way as to avoid
causing offense…”. Or as I like to say, “It’s being a lady.” It’s just my
opinion of course but I think that in today’s society ladies are undervalued
and not in abundant supply, but if you meet one you never forget it. It’s sad
that in the world today a woman’s greatest commodity is her sex appeal, and we
all know it’s true. I mean turn on the TV if you don’t believe me. We like to
say that women are so much more than their bodies, and they are that’s true but
that isn’t what the world would have us believe. It isn’t what the world is
teaching our daughters. Contrary to what some might believe God’s word values
women for who they are not simply “what” they are. God’s Word values them for
their contributions to their family, homes, husband, and society (see Proverbs
31). When is the last time you saw this in the world? However, that being said
Godly women have a responsibility to realize they are so much more than just
what their bodies can give them. And they need to act like it…
