A few Sundays ago I read Matthew Henry's commentary on Proverbs 31. There were so many good things in there. I wrote down a few quotes from it in a little notebook.
Here they are...
"Those that have a family to take care of should not love their bed too well in the morning."
"She does what she does with all her might, and does not trifle in it;..."
"Those families are likely to thrive that sell more than they buy;..."
"Though she needs not to work for her bread (she has an estate to live upon), yet she will not eat it in idleness, because she knows that we were none of us sent into this world to be idle, that when we have nothing to do the devil will soon find us something to do, and that is not fit that those who will not labour should eat."
