I conclude my reading today through the book of Proverbs. The message I have for you today actually goes more for the women than it does the men. But it is good that the men read it as well.

Every lady should read this. In fact, if you have any friends that you email on a regular basis it would be helpful to them to hear this scripture text today.

We have ladies who work so hard to be something they are not. They apply makeup daily to cover up blemishes on the outside and hide behind name brand clothing to hide the blemishes on the inside. Some depend on their personality to get them through life each day while others hold on to their rough texture of being someone who speaks their mind and who need not be messed with.

But read and learn from God's word today!

Proverbs 31:30
"Charm is deceitful and beauty is vain, but a woman who fears (has reverence for) the Lord shall be praised."

When it comes to getting things you want in life, don't fall into the temptation of thinking that a wink from your eye will get his attention. Don't use your sweetness to work your way to the top. We will flirt with possibilities that we think will make us happy.

Charm is deceitful and beauty is vain. You are being called out today to be a woman of God and the Lord promises that if you will fear Him, you will be praised!

Prayer: "God, help us not to depend on ourselves to make us happy. We realize today only you can do that."
