What is motivating me this week?
Motivation Monday: What is in my scripture journal?
The Wife of Noble Character
“A wife of noble character who can find? She is worth far more than rubies. Her husband has full confidence in her and lacks nothing of value. She brings him good, not harm, all the days of her life. She selects wool and flax and works with eager hands. She is like the merchant ships, bringing her food from afar. She gets up while it is still night; she provides food for her family and portions for her female servants. She considers a field and buys it; out of her earnings, she plants a vineyard. She sets about her work vigorously; her arms are strong for her tasks. She sees that her trading is profitable, and her lamp does not go out at night.
In her hand, she holds the distaff and grasps the spindle with her fingers. She opens her arms to the poor and extends her hands to the needy. When it snows, she has no fear for her household; for all of them are clothed in scarlet. She makes coverings for her bed; she is clothed in fine linen and purple. Her husband is respected at the city gate, where he takes his seat among the elders of the land. She makes linen garments and sells them, and supplies the merchants with sashes. She is clothed with strength and dignity; she can laugh at the days to come.
She speaks with wisdom, and faithful instruction is on her tongue. She watches over the affairs of her household and does not eat the bread of idleness. Her children arise and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praises her: ‘Many women do noble things, but you surpass them all.’ Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting, but a woman who fears the LORD is to be praised.”
Proverbs 31:10-30

Motivation Monday: What is on my radio?
I'd given up on things that I believe
My hopes and dreams were buried in the sea
But you were there, calling out to me
Life will rise, death will die
Your love is mine, your love is mine
Stains washed white, you paid the price
Your love is mine, your love is mine
Ooo, Ooo your love is mine, your love is mine
I once was lost and burdened by my shame
But you took the cross and suffered in my place
You rescued me, I belong to you
Life will rise, death will die
Your love is mine, your love is mine
Stains washed white, you paid the price
Your love is mine, your love is mine
Ooo, Ooo your love is mine, your love is mine.
Your Love Is Mine, I Am They
Take this fainted heart
Take these tainted hands
Wash me in your love
Come like grace again
Even when my strength is lost
I'll praise you
Even when I have no song
I'll praise you
Even when it's hard to find the words
Louder then I'll sing your praise
I will only sing your praise.
Even When It Hurts, Hillsong
