A Godly Mother

A Godly Mother
Pro 31:10-31

A passage authored by King Lemuel. Nothing else is known of him, other than this chapter; but, it seems as if he is writing his own mother’s resume. In so doing, in these wonderful verses, he plainly distinguishes a godly mother from all others.
In these verses, he seeks to point that a godly mother is different from all others, because she has:

I. A WORTH THAT IS UNEQUALLED (V. 10-12)

-A. SHE IS A LADY OF VIRTUE (10a)

-B. SHE IS A LADY OF VALUE (10b-12)

II. A WORK THAT IS UNMATCHED (V. 13, 15, 19)

-A. IT IS A DESIRED WORK (v. 13)

-B. IT IS A DEVOTED WORK (v. 15)

-C. IT IS A DEDICATED WORK (v. 19)

III. A WISDOM THAT IS UNFEIGNED (V. 26,27)

-A. THERE IS WISDOM IN WHAT SHE SPEAKS (v. 26)

-B. THERE IS WISDOM IN WHAT SHE SHUNS (v. 27)

IV. A WEALTH THAT IS UNSHARED (V. 28-31)

-A. BY THE PRAISE OF HER FAMILY (v. 28)

-B. BY THE PRAISE FROM HER FATHER (v. 30)

-C. BY THE PRAISE FOR HER FRUITS (v. 31)
