How to Find Bible Quotes on Wives or Mothers

Would you like to find some beautiful words on a woman, wife or mother of noble character? Try the Bible, a poetic source of great language and literature. Then incorporate the quote of your choice, one that best describes your subject, into a card or keepsake. Calligraphy can make the thought extral lovely.

Instructions

1. Look up Proverbs 31: 9-31. Here you'll find a series of statements about what makes good wives, but this can also work as expressing virtues about mothers. Choose your favorite for a quote on which to base a homemade card, needlepoint or any piece of art incorporating this key phrase.

2. Consider "She is worth far more than rubies." This will also do wonders on Mother's Day next to that breakfast tray.

3. For anniversaries, meditate on "Her husband has full confidence in her and lacks nothing of value. She brings him good, not harm, all the days of her life." This is quite a description of a noble woman.

4. Acknowledge the practical and hard work in her daily life: "She is like the merchant ships, bringing her food from afar. She gets up while it is still dark; she provides food for her family..."

5. Honor the woman in your family, and equally honor her work ethic with, "She sets about her work vigorously; her arms are strong for her tasks."

6. Respond to a generous soul with the quote, "She opens her arms to the poor and extends her hands to the needy."

7. Appreciate a balanced woman: "She is clothed with strength and dignity; she can laugh at the days to come." Focus on the industrious, diligent woman by using, "She watches over the affairs of her household and does not eat the bread of idleness." Bring adoration to a smart woman by expressing, "She speaks with wisdom, and faithful instruction is on her tongue."

8. Give a summarizing statement: "Many women do noble things, but you surpass them all."
