I would love to have a study on Proverbs 31 here at she reads truth! In trying to be a Godly woman this is often where we are told to look and study from so I think it would be fitting if we went through it as a community!

Love prov 31! I strive to be this woman. One of my favorites is prob 31:15, especially since by almost 1 year old is not a good sleeper and I most definitely get up when it is still night haha!

Kaily…I’m with you girl. I read this while nursing at 5:30 this morning when it was still dark and thought the same thing :)

She opens her mouth with wisdom, and the teaching of kindness is on her tongue. Prov. 31:26. I love that. Striving to be like that.

I just love reading Proverbs 31..especially after journeying through the book of Proverbs, it’s a wonderful way to gathered the lessons that stood out to us each individually and then apply them to this description of a woman who fears the Lord. Back when I was single, I used to read this and feel so connected to the Lord..now I am blessed to have a wonderful husband. The thing is, I still read this passage the same way that I used to..the deeper connection is our relationship with God. I hope that makes sense..it’s hard to explain our own personal journeys with this passage! :-)

You were correct the first time, Katrina, he is called both Saul and Paul in this chapter!
-
Such a transition in Paul through this Acts book!
-
Saul… Not Paul
-
Yeah they don’t explain the transition from Saul to Paul

This is what my study notes say for 13:9 where it says Saul called Paul: “The names mean “asked of God” and “little” respectively. It was customary to have a given name, in this case Saul (Hebrew, Jewish background) and a later name, in this case Paul (Roman, Hellenistic background). From now on Saul is called Paul in Acts. This may be due to Saul’s success in preaching to Paulus or to the fact that he is now entering the Gentile phase of his ministry. ”
Hope that helps. We also know that Paul was a Roman citizen, so maybe traveling was easier using his Roman name. Not sure, but food for thought.

Love the reminder in Pr. 31:8 to be a voice and advocate for the oppressed!

I am so honored to call myself a woman of the Lord! I can’t wait until the day that Jesus comes back!
-
Amen sister!
