Working Gal

18 

She makes sure her dealings are profitable;
     her lamp burns late into the night.

19 

Her hands are busy spinning thread,
     her fingers twisting fiber.

The ideal woman in Proverbs could indeed be seen as a workaholic. She works long and hard as an equal partner in her marriage, always striving for the well-being of her household. I’m reminded of Mary, the mother of Jesus, who also embodies many qualities of the Proverbs woman. She humbly accepted God’s will for her and for her son, yet didn’t passively wait for God to handle everything. Mary likely had to work hard, especially when she became a widow during much of Jesus' adult life, as many scholars believe.

Mary’s strength and faith were tested, especially after Jesus was crucified. It’s heartbreaking to imagine how she must have felt on each of His birthdays, remembering her son’s life and sacrifice.

Think about this: When you face despair, discouragement, or depression, do you have Hope? Hope’s name is Jesus. If you are seeking Hope and don’t know where to find it, I’m here to help. Feel free to contact me at rick@renewedmindsets.com.
