Proverbs - Looking Well to Our Household



Proverbs 31:27

She looketh well to the ways of her household,
 and eateth not the bread of idleness.


We are told that we are to look well to the ways of our household.  We are not to casually glance but look well.  How are the children doing in school?  Is anyone unusually moody or agitated?  What needs repair or maintenance?  Is my husband’s sexual needs/desires being met?  Is there milk in the refrigerator?  Are there any relationships in my home that need cultivating?  Have we been too serious lately?  Have we been too carefree lately?  The best way to look is to watch in prayer.  As we bring our household before the Lord He will illuminate those things to which He would have us address.  We must not be idle women just existing from day to day, but rather diligent women who know that our homes are under construction and we are on site to do just that.  Every wise woman builds her house.
