The Virtuous Woman ~ Book Review

Shattering the Superwoman Myth

Being a Virtuous Woman wasn't on my list when I was a young bride, how about you?


The Virtuous Woman:
Shattering the Superwoman Myth
As a matter of fact, washing dishes with no dishwasher, doing laundry by hand (sheets are a no-no) and cooking 1,095 meals a year are just too much pressure.

Before I was married I would watch how my sister was in keeping her house. She seemed "obsessed" to me and wouldn't even leave the home unless her entire house was in order.
 
How can a person love mopping floors every day? It was unnatural to me.

When I got married I made sure my husband knew I was married to him and not the house. Now don't get me wrong. I keep a pretty good house, but it's not the main thing in my life.

So when did this need to be a Virtuous Woman creep into my thinking?

How would a woman like me with my mind set, fulfill Proverbs 31 in my life?

How do you feel when you think of the Proverbs 31 woman? Does it overwhelm you, make you feel guilty and like a failure? Christian women have gotten the wrong concept when it comes to being the Virtuous Woman God really wants.
