Our new Proverbs 31 necklace is a beautiful way to show the world how you define your worth! Purchase this for yourself or as a gift to a Proverbs 31 woman in your life.

Can you imagine being so loved that people aren't willing to see you die? We look at the story of Tabitha and the reasons God decided to extend her life through the Apostle Peter.
-
When we started this mini-course, we learned that the word virtue (or virtuous) actually means strength, power, valor, and courage. We have seen the courage of Abigail, intervening before King David for her husband Nabel's life. And, we saw Esther risk her life before King Xerxes to plead for the lives of her people. These and other stories of courage help remind us that God will give us courage in our moment of need.
-
Sometimes life doesn't lead us into marriage and parenthood. But, God promises to be a husband to us, and that he will allow us to have more children than we could ever have physically if we allow Him to provide the best for our lives.
-
We have discussed what it means to be a virtuous woman of God. We've seen examples of courageous women. We've talked about Wisdom and the Woman Foolishness. Now, we bring it all together in a blessing that you might become the virtuous woman of God you desire to be, so that you can experience your share of the inheritance that Jesus purchased for you.

Forum Posting Assignment #3
Reflection Questions:
1. Reflect on a person whose kindness stands out to you. Is there anything that person does that may make you wish you were like him/her? Plan an action that reflects kindness—one that you want to begin to make a regular part of your life. Post it on the discussion board and tell why you chose it. Pick a person to practice on. After you have completed showing kindness in your chosen way, post a reply to your initial post and tell us about the activity and the response.
2. Pick one of the question groups below:
Are you married? What things do you do to let your husband know you love and respect him? What would you like to begin to do to better express your love?
Are you unmarried? What are the things God has said He will do for you if you allow Him to be your husband? Are you able to trust Him for your happiness and fulfillment?
Do you have children? Do you remember how hard it was to be young and unable to make your own decisions? What are some ways you can show your children the love of Jesus by demonstrating understanding and compassion?
Have you not had children? What are the qualities of a mother that God has built into you that can benefit the entire family of God as well as children who need guidance and direction?
3. Select a woman you believe is courageous or find a story about a courageous woman. What do they do that makes you feel they act with courage? What would you do in the same situation? Do you want God to increase your ability to act courageously? Can you ask the Holy Spirit to be courageous through you?
4. Of the things we have talked about, what could you relate to most? Did this course provide you with insights you can use in your daily life? If so, can you tell us about them?
