proverbs 32: the virtuous man

so yesterday, i was reading laura’s birthday tribute to her dad, and i was impressed with the relationship that they shared.  i found it so sweet that i commented that i want my future husband to have that with my future daughter.

and then one of my guy friends told me that i’m asking for alot, and the other one just said, “good luck.” actually, the first one told me “hehehe, seems like you have alot of expectations, perhaps you need alot of prayers =)”

yes, i would appreciate the prayers, but y’know, i was thinking, it’s not too much to ask that a guy strives to make our family the best it can be - after all, i’d like to think that i come as close to the virtuous woman described in proverbs 31 as i possibly can.  yah, i’m not perfect, but i like to try to do the best for my family & friends.  and stuff like cooking dinner for all my friends every tuesday and learning to sew or fix the fridge is something i wanna keep on doing all my life, especially when i have kids and become the housewife i’ve always wanted to be.

at any rate, i ended up googling “virtuous woman and virtuous man Bible passage” and came up with this website that makes up the qualities of a virtuous man.  now, i KNOW that there’s no 32nd book of proverbs, but this is a compilation of desirable male traits taken from the real 31 books of proverbs.  and since there IS a list of qualities that woman should be, it’s sorta nice to have this Biblical list of what a guy should be too. 

and may he play volleyball too =)

  1. Hi Kimi,

    That is a really neat thing, the “Proverbs 32 Man” - I’ve never seen that before!

    And I don’t think you’re asking for too much at ALL to want all those qualities in your husband. Good grief! As if you’d settle for anything less than that! Is it really too much these days to ask a man to cherish his wife and family?! AGH!

    Being able to write that post about my dad means a lot to me, too, actually. Things were not always as rosy as I painted them in that tribute!

    Relationship takes struggle and a LOT of forgiveness for stupid mistakes. I have a few “dad wounds” that God is still working on in my heart.

    But everything I said in that post is truth - my dad is on my side and he loves me, even if (when) he does stupid and hurtful things to me sometimes that make it hard to remember.

    THAT is what counts the most, I think. To know that your family has a good heart for you. smile
