Character of a Woman

 The woman, feminine depiction of a man has an outward appearance of beauty and frailty.  She is adorned with jewels, fine gold and linens to enhance the outward appearance.  What is woman?  The dictionary term states an adult female human being.  This description depicts what is seen, not what is unseen.  In the bible, descriptions of a woman can be found in scriptures 1 Peter 3:1-5 that reads:

         Wives, likewise, be submissive to your own husbands, that even if some do not obey the word, they, without  a word, may be won by the conduct of their wives, when they observe your chaste conduct accompanied by fear.  Do not let your adornment be merely outward--arranging the hair, wearing gold, or putting on final apparel--rather let it be the hidden person of the heart, with the incorruptible beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is very precious in the sight of God.  For in this manner, in former times, the holy women who trusted in God also adorned themselves, being submissive to their own husbands,
That "submissive" word will be taken out of proportion to what God has intended for it to be.  Some will mean it for the man to be complete ruler over his wife.  This is not so, she is not meant to be his slave or any other kind of servant to him.  She is there to under-gird him; to minister to him, knowing that his word is the final say.  In turn he will seek her for wisdom and counsel.  There is so much more that women are meant for and over looked at the same time.  She is to know her place as a person that is full of wisdom and reverence to God first and foremost then to her husband.
We can recognize the strength of a woman by how she reacts to pain.  Whe she is overwhelmed by pain she will either use it to push ahead like a flourishing flower in the spring.  Or it will be used to become like a withering, wilted flower in the winter.  There is a reason that God has created a woman for a man, and that reason sustains her.  A man can never take the place of a woman, no matter how hard he tries to transform himself, his inwardness will never match up to the creation in its true nature of being woman.  Woman are able to take on the pains of her husband and of her children and seek a way to help then heal from them.  All the while she is dealing with her own.  We have a nurturing nature that wants to hold them in our bosom until the pain is gone.  When you see a women wither and buckle, she lacks the confidence in herself to believe that she can take the pain and keep pressing.  She needs to find that confidence in herself, we all have it, as women, we were created with it. 
The inward parts of a woman are not meant to be as the organs per say.  It is to signify the intentions, the devotions, the passions, the love she has inside of her.  When a woman possess those attributes and has geared them all to the goof of what God has called her to be, she is pleasing to the Most High.  Her character will have the ambiance of what is inside of her.  She will not come off abrasive to any one.  Her poise with have the quality of a good hearted person.  She will have "the incorruptible beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is very precious in the sight of God."  She will have a chaste conduct, Webster's Dictionary defines chaste as: pure in though and act.  She is to have chaste conduct accompanied by fear, to walk in purity of the heart and mind and with actions that reveal those inward secrets.  All the while she holds reverential fear of God that causes her to want to please Him every single day!
Seek God within yourselves so that He can show you the woman that you are supposed to become.  To be able to walk in that incorruptible beauty and confidence so that when someone tries to break you, they will not have a chance.  Allow God to be your vengeance!  May God bless you always!!!!
