notes on nobility + Thanksgiving challenge



friends,

Our current study is on "becoming a woman of noble character."
If you weren't at Bible study a couple nights ago, we looked at Proverbs 31:10-31 and we studied eight characteristics that the "Proverbs 31 woman" has and discussed practical applications for each characteristic. On 11/28 we'll look at ten more characteristics.

Here's what we've covered so far: this woman was dependable, loving, hard-working, energetic, sacrificial, contemplative, resourceful  and charitable.


She wasn't flaky, hateful, lethargic, selfish, impulsive, lazy  or self-absorbed.


Starting tomorrow, I'm going to embrace one characteristic a day. I'm thinking about what's coming up in the next week and basing the characteristic I choose on the activities I'll be doing that day.

Thursday- energetic (lots of chores)
Friday- resourceful
Saturday- sacrificial
Sunday- dependable
Monday- loving
Tuesday- contemplative
Wednesday- charitable
Thursday- hard-working (I have to work on Thanksgiving! bummer)

Will you join in this challenge? You can start it any day of the week. Some of you students might choose to start on Saturday because you'll likely be around family around the holidays.

lots of love!
