S.W.A.G.: She Exudes Goodness

Coffee is good.

Really good.

Especially rich black coffee!

So, I thought the image above was fitting for this fruit of the Spirit. But, since we're not talking about exuding, or oozing out, coffee...although I'm sure I could somedays...(smile!!!) that's all I'll say on that subject!

A Submissive Wife Adorned with Grace, is one who exudes goodness.

A woman walking with the godly swag of goodness, is a graciously selfless being, generous with her time and resources.

She possesses and displays moral virtue.

She maintains a respectable courteous air, setting the bar high, first for herself. Others are bound to follow; her irreproachable behavior demands respect.


Because she is a dutiful, hard working, levelheaded person, her husband is able to see her as trustworthy. Her decency is delightful to him and all those around her.

Her husband has full confidence in her because,

"she brings him good, hot harm,

all the days of her life."

~Proverbs 31:11-12~

There is no law against goodness. It is always appropriate. (Coffee is too. Just saying!)

To bring her husband good she,

• has good work ethic
• speaks wisely
• is thoughtful in word and deed
• forgives early
• is a joy to be around
• irreproachable

"She is clothed with strength and dignity."

~Proverbs 31:25~

She has a good reputation with both her husband and others. People can see by her up-right, honest behavior that she is wholeheartedly devoted to God and her husband.

She proves her wisdom and understanding through her good life, by deeds done in humility. She is pure and blameless in word and deed. (read James 3:13-18)

Even when her husband is demanding or inconsiderate, she holds on to an eternal perspective. In doing so she is able to respond with grace. (And, hopefully, not throw her coffee cup at him!)

"The good man brings good things out of the 

good stored up in him"

~Matthew 12:35~

She remains diligent in doing good to her husband, knowing that in due time she will reap a harvest. So as she has the opportunity, she wisely does good even in the face of adversity. (read Gal.6:7-10)

In the later years of her good life, her husband and children will be able to speak of her praiseworthy life, saying,

"Give her the reward she has earned,

and let her works bring her praise

at the city gate."

~Proverbs 31:31~
