Godly Womanhood | Tony Evans
Womanhood
One of the most important principles to keep in mind as a woman is that your life uniquely flows through different seasons. Each of these seasons carries with it different time-constraints, blessings and also demands. To try and do all things without being fully aware of the season you are in is the surest way to lead to burnout, and even bitterness.
The primary foundation of being a woman of God doesn’t include a million different things done a million different ways. The primary foundation is actually very simple and straightforward. It is located in the summary statement at the end of Proverbs 31. After listing everything that this influential woman did, we read,
Charm is deceitful and beauty is vain,
But a woman who fears the Lord, she shall be praised.
Give her the product of her hands,
And let her works praise her in the gates.Proverbs 31:30-31
What sets a Godly woman apart from any other woman boils down to her fear of God.
Her reverence of God determines her actions, thoughts, words and priorities. Without that, the demands and pull of life that come as a natural course of being a woman would be too many to juggle well.
