God-fearing Woman

- Charm and beauty are what the world focuses on and places women's values on. Charm tends to deceive. Beauty does not last. A virtuous woman is God-fearing and people-loving. She is a blessing to others. Her inner beauty shines and attracts people to the Lord.

- She will be honored and praised for what she has done. She is industrious, resourceful, prudent, responsible, thoughtful, kind, and generous. But most important of all, she has reverence for the Lord! That's the crown of her character. She is guided and governed by God's principles.

- True virtue will receive its praise--both from God and man.

- "Wives, in the same way submit yourselves to your own husbands so that, if any of them do not believe the word, they may be won over without words by the behavior of their wives, when they see the purity and reverence of your lives. Your beauty should not come from outward adornment, such as elaborate hairstyles and the wearing of gold jewelry or fine clothes. Rather, it should be that of your inner self, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is of great worth in God's sight." (1 Peter 3:1-4)
