A wife, a good wife, is a priceless gift from God.
Proverbs 31:10 says that her price is far above rubies.
It continues in verse 11 to say that her husband trusts her and that he will have no lack of gain.
In verse twelve, the good wife does good deeds for her husband; she is a diligent worker, she is resourceful, loving, caring, willing, God-fearing, merciful, and cherishes her family.
A wife is a wonder and a gift that all men and the world will be grateful for forever.

But how much can you bear, you are only one person, and there is only so much you can take.
You need help, a word from God, and the joy that comes in the morning, Psalm 30:5.

Only God knows your pain, tears, emotions, and what you are going through right now.

You see, God loves you; He has a plan for your life, for your kids, for your marriage, and for your family.
God will not harm you, He will not allow the devil to destroy you, and He has your best interest at heart.
Your heavenly Father is with you as you go through whatever you are going through.

12 She will do him good and not evil all the days of her life.
13 She seeketh wool, and flax, and worketh willingly with her hands.
14 She is like the merchants’ ships; she bringeth her food from afar.
15 She riseth also while it is yet night, and giveth meat to her household, and a portion to her maidens.
16 She considereth a field, and buyeth it: with the fruit of her hands, she planteth a vineyard.
17 She girdeth her loins with strength, and strengtheneth her arms.
18 She perceiveth that her merchandise is good: her candle goeth not out by night.
19 She layeth her hands to the spindle, and her hands hold the distaff.
20 She stretcheth out her hand to the poor; yea, she reacheth forth her hands to the needy.
21 She is not afraid of the snow for her household: for all her household are clothed with scarlet.
22 She maketh herself coverings of tapestry; her clothing is silk and purple.
23 Her husband is known in the gates when he sitteth among the elders of the land.
24 She maketh fine linen, and selleth it; and delivereth girdles unto the merchant.
25 Strength and honor are her clothing, and she shall rejoice in time to come.
26 She openeth her mouth with wisdom, and in her tongue is the law of kindness.
27 She looketh well to the ways of her household, and eateth not the bread of idleness.
28 Her children arise up, and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praiseth her.
29 Many daughters have done virtuously, but thou excellest them all.
30 Favour is deceitful, and beauty is vain: but a woman that feareth the Lord, she shall be praised.
31 Give her of the fruit of her hands and let her own works praise her in the gates.
