10 Things Not Found in Proverbs 31

Happy Mother's Day to all EMF friends and family! So often we hear of the seemingly-unattainable 'Proverbs 31' woman. This list encouraged me to consider what that does NOT mean to us as women. Enjoy, and make it a great day! - Jen

Here is a list of 10 things not found in Proverbs 31:

1. Her coffee table never has dust on it.
2. Many have eaten off of her kitchen floor.
3. Immaculate Home Magazine just did a photo shoot in her living room.
4. She does all of the housework herself while the kids play video games.
5. All of the words that flow from her children’s mouths are blessed.
6. All of her children are straight A students, musical geniuses, and all-star athletes.
7. Her hair is always fixed perfectly and her make-up is artfully applied.
8. She does not touch make-up or hairspray because it is vain and the art of Satan.
9. She never makes a bad decision.
10. She is classroom mom, PTO President, the bearer of orange slices at soccer games, and the church committee queen.

It sounds ridiculous, doesn’t it? But you know that you have added at least a few of these things to your "Proverbs 31 list."

Remember Martha and Mary? Which one do you think had a list like this in her pocket? Drop the scrub brush and grab a Bible. Sit at Jesus’ feet and become a disciple. Let him give you his character, and you will have the one thing needed to carry out everything else.
