Proverbs - Wisdom in Spending

Proverbs 31:16

She considereth a field, and buyeth it:
with the fruit of her hands she planteth a vineyard.
Should I Buy That?


This proverb lets us know that a virtuous woman is not an impulse buyer and she is definitely not into credit.  She considers the field.  She examines whether it is a good buy and helpful to her family.  She is a woman who is not quickly duped by late night infomercials or the next get-rich-quick scheme.  She takes what she earns and yields an increase.  This may be why she is not impulsive.  She uses the money that she earned with her own hands so she is cautious and prudent with it.  Lord, give us the wisdom we need to be the women you want us to be with purchases and investments.
