These two verses are among my favorite. They are what I strive to be. In two sentences, it sums up what a strive for my life. Let's break it down.
"Strength and honour are her clothing"
In today's society, this can be hard to hear. But this is saying it doesn't matter how you are dressed. You can have on the oldest, most worn clothing but that doesn't matter. It's about your strength and honour and confidence that should spew out. Who needs the newest clothes when you have God? I believe this verse also plays on being modest. Never should we show off what God has given us ladies in an immodest way. This is an unpopular idea today, but a woman should be properly clothed in modest clothing. Everything about us should be God like- even our clothing.
"She shall rejoice in the time to come"
Why be worried or sad about tomorrow when you have an amazing God on your side? He cares for you and loves you- He holds your future. Nothing you can do or say will change what the future holds- so be happy about it and know that whatever happens is God's will.
"She openeth her mouth with wisdom and in her tongue is the law of kindness"
Above all, don't speak ill of people. Be smart. Have common sense. Be kind. When you open your mouth, think of what God would want you to say. Uplift others, don't bring them down. Do and say to others what you would like to be done and said to you!
