Proverbs - Letting Needs Stretch You

Proverbs 31:20

She stretcheth out her hand to the poor;

 yea, she reacheth forth her hands to the needy.

Letting Needs Stretch You

The kind of woman a young man should look for is one who reaches out to the needy.  She actually stretches and reaches forth to meet these needs.  It is not always the convenient deed that she involves herself with.  She gets involved and her hands are involved.  Whether she is cooking for them, writing that check, giving clothes or a listening ear, she goes towards the need.  In our culture, we are often so consumed with our own needs we turn a deaf ear to the dilemmas others face.  As God’s women we are designed to go towards assisting and ministering to those who are in need.  The next time you hear of a need ask your God how you might stretch out and reach forth in His name.
