ABC's of the Word - N (and M)

A wife of noble character who can find? She is worth far more than rubies.

Proverbs 31:10

I know, I know...I couldn't help but think of this passage for "N" week. I tried and tried to think of something else, but I continued to come back to this verse. Was it me? I doubt it. I have an accountability group and they are praying for me. This week I asked them to pray that I would please God in my marriage. I think it might not be a coincidence that verse continues to roll around in my mind as I have pondered which verse to share today.

It seemed like a good idea to look up the definition of the word "noble". After all, it is not a word we frequently use in our conversations today. What I found made the verse even less appealing for my post today.

1. Of an exalted moral or mental character or excellence.

2. Very impressive or imposing in appearance; stately; magnificent.

3. Having excellent qualities or abilities.

4. Of an admirably high quality; notably superior; excellent.

Need I go on?

(sigh)

I wonder, would my dear husband use the word "noble" to describe is dear wife?

Hmmmm.........

OK, so I missed "M" week last week and I think now is a good time to include it. The verse I am thinking of gives me a little security when contemplating the verse God obviously selected for "N" week.

The Lord god said, it is not good for MAN to be alone. I will MAKE a helper suitable for him.

Genesis 2:18

WHEW!

That's good news.
