The Proverbs 31 woman extended her hands to the poor and reached out her hands to the needy. Every woman is a helper and giver by God’s design whether she knows it or not. When God created a woman it was after He had already created a man. So you can be sure that His plan for women was thoughtful and strategic in keeping with the order of things. God was sure not to give the same instincts and characteristics to both the man and the woman. Masculinity was created with the nature of "pursuer and conqueror". Femininity was created with the nature of "if you are lucky enough to catch me, I can and will help you" (and I’ve been around long enough to know that masculinity definitely needs our help!). The giver and helper in femininity coincide with the rest of her personality so that masculinity feels good about what he’s already pursued and conquered. Not only is the woman "God’s gift to man", she is the gift that keeps on giving.
Giving and helping is very rewarding and fulfilling to the female nature. Whether it’s a delicious meal that an older woman has cooked or a helping hand from a young girl, femininity wants to do something for someone else. We all probably know a few examples of women who don’t strike us as helpers or givers but take note that these women are usually not the happiest people in the world. As a matter of fact, they generally are the most miserable! Women were made to help and are deeply satisfied when they can give. Even in this modern society, there are many highly educated and successful women that still feel incomplete because they have no family or no man in their life that they can help. Our generation of women has come further than just having his baby or baking his bread, but trust me, femininity still wants to give masculinity something! lol
After the Proverbs 31 woman made sure that her family had everything that they needed, she helped and gave to others. She wanted to help and was a giver by God’s design. She was a good thing and so are you! Log on next week for the continued study of Woman... God's Good Thing.
