I was sitting, after reading the Proverbs 31 Women, thinking about all the things I want to be. Who I want to be to my friends, who I want to be for my future husband, who I will need to be for my children, but most of all, all that God has designed me to be. Not because He doesn't think that I am not good enough the way I am, but because He has designed me for GREATER things. I don't only know this from reading the word and hearing the promises He has made, but because He has confirmed it to me over and over again.
This is what I got from reading Proverbs 31 plus some of my own add ins.
The women I will become
A women who:
Fears the Lord
A women who:
Fears the Lord
Truly loves God above all else
Makes God the center of everything she does
Loves peoples individualism (the way God made them)
Is faithful to her word
Sees in people what they can become
People come to for wisdom/advice
Works hard, but not just hard, with EAGER hands.
Doesn’t put the cart before the horse
Makes the most of every moment
Walks in the Spirit
Is disciplined
Runs after Purity
Thrives on the word and continually knows it and uses it
People look up too
Shines Jesus’ light
Respects her family, friends, elders, leadership, and guys
Is happy with how God has made her
Knows she is forgiven and made NEW
Faith
Love
Joy
Character
Wisdom
The spirit
Humility
Strength
Encouragement
NOW... HOW TO GET THERE? HHMMM

That's a pretty solid list you've compiled... I have to say, it's both inspiring and frustrating. It makes me want to think more about that and keep those things in the forefront, but then I just think about all the times I've laid that groundwork in the past and forgotten about it later. So I guess the real question is the exact one the you posed. How do we get there?
Hi Tash, I started skimming through your blog just bein nosey (after meeting you with Kris the other week) and I found myself drawn to reading each part in full because it really speaks to myself.'Your thoughts and questions and self discoveries are ones I can relate to.
I really enjoyed and appreciate your blog.
Thank you for sharing your journey. God bless
