A Godly Marriage Poem by Lancashire Lass Susan

Honor to God's divine union of two souls is shown in their love and respect to God and to each other. Worthiness in the wife is recognised by her husband through HER strength of character to submit and commit all circumstances to God in prayer, to seek HIS will.

A woman who recognizes and follows the Holy Spirit's guidance in all she does. Embraces Him as a Friend, Counselor, Comforter, Confidante, Peacemaker, Restorer, Redeemer, HER God of ALL wisdom and might.

She is a wife of noble character whom her husband can TRUST with his innermost thoughts, dreams and insecurities. A wife in whom he can find a softness of heart, a faithful quiet love, steadfast through calm and storm.

A woman he is not afraid to love wholeheartedly, can be vulnerable with, surrendering to the one who will treasure his love and keep it sacred in honor to God, Who freely gifted this man's heart into her safe keeping.

Such a woman is to be treasured more than jewels.

Proverbs 31: 10 Who can find a virtuous woman? for her price is far above rubies.

This was inspired through a woman's Bible Study group.
