Text: Proverbs 31:30-31

30 Charm is deceitful and beauty is vain, but a woman who fears the Lord, she shall be praised. 31 Give here the product of her hands, and let her works praise her in the gates.

Synopsis:  

The woman of Proverbs 31 appears to be super woman with a capital S.  However, upon closer inspection she is the wife, mother and role model many of us had when we were growing up.  Usually we fail to see what we have right under our noses and do not appreciate what we have.
