Is the Proverbs 31 Woman a Person or a Character?

Happy last day of January! 🎉

I saw someone on Threads say that January felt like an entire year, 😂 You guys are hilarious! Anywho’s, We made it!

So, here we are on the 31st of January, talking about Proverbs 31. Coincidence? Maybe. Intentional? I’ll let you decide.

Now, let’s get into it. Is the Proverbs 31 woman a real, historical person, or is she simply a picture of godly character? 🤔

This is a question that kept lingering in my mind, especially as I dived into books on the topic, like “The Proverbs 31 Woman!” Because, let’s be real, when you read Proverbs 31, you have to wonder, Was there really a woman like this? A woman who woke up before dawn, ran multiple businesses, took care of her family, helped the needy, and still had time to be clothed in strength and dignity?” Whew! If she was real, she must have been a superwoman! 💪🏽

But if she was a character, then what does that mean for us today? The truth is, Proverbs 31 is not just about one woman, it’s a blueprint, a guide, a picture of godly womanhood. It is not about perfection but about purpose. It is not a checklist to stress over but an inspiration to grow into.

Some say that King Lemuel wrote this about his mother, while others believe it was a poetic description of the virtues every woman can cultivate.

Whatever the case, the Proverbs 31 woman is not an unreachable standard but an encouragement that with God’s wisdom, grace, and strength, we too can reflect these qualities in our own unique way.

So, dear bestie, don’t feel intimidated, be inspired. Proverbs 31 is not about being her, it’s about becoming the woman God has called you to be. 💖✨ What stands out to you most about the Proverbs 31 woman?

Let’s talk! 👇🏽

Blessings. ✨
