Well-Dressed Proverbs 31 Woman
When deciding what to wear for the day, what do you consider? How comfortable, stylish, on trend an outfit is, the weather? As a daughter of God, you are his royalty, and in his eyes, you most likely resemble a Proverbs 31 woman.
Yes. You my dear are a Proverbs 31 woman which mean you are well dressed as well as many other great things.
Dressing well and on trend doesn’t have to be expensive because you and your personality wear the clothes, not the other way around. A great outfit, accessories, and shoes can be found from anywhere. By anywhere I mean anywhere from goodwill to high-end boutiques with high-end labels. It really doesn’t matter where you find your outfits from, it’s all in how you see yourself when you are wearing them. God sees you as a Proverbs 31 woman and hopefully you do as well.
Wearing bright colors can lift any mood, especially when it’s raining and not so bright outside. You can still wear bright flattering colors and prints and look amazing. If you are having a rough day, I suggest you get showered, do your hair, makeup, and put on a well-dressed outfit. That alone can make you feel better and be ready to be productive and smile from the inside out with God’s joy in your heart.
In Proverbs 31:22, it states that a woman is finely dressed in the best linen. As a standard, being a Proverbs 31 woman that is well dressed is ideal and something to strive for.
Sometimes considering being a proverbs 31 woman can feel daunting, such as this woman is near perfect and is well dressed and well-rounded, and makes everything by hand, in today’s day and age, who can do all of that? I think being a Proverbs 31 woman is a standard to work up to but perhaps she is to be and do each thing mentioned in its own time not necessarily simultaneously. I think it’s good to choose a few areas to work on and go from there, for instance being well dressed for sure because when a woman looks good, she feels good. When feeling good, you’ll be more apt to be more optimistic and be more inclined to take more action towards goals and help others.
Whatever a Proverbs 31 woman means to you, I hope you do it well and well dressed!
Prayer
Dear Lord,

Be with her each day of her life and guide her to be your fashionista in her own style and way. Show her your loving acceptance, peace, joy, and unconditional love.
In Jesus’ name, Amen.
Proverbs 3:5-6 (NIV)
