A Virtuous Woman has Godly Wisdom
Virtuous Women of God
Virtuous women will frequently have a form of holiness. Some people may think that they can figure out how a woman is by the clothes she wears. That's not necessarily true, clothes do not define a woman but a woman's actions define who she is. A righteous woman has righteous behavior, and a foolish woman has foolish behavior. If we would only judge a book by its cover then we would never want to open the book to know its content and value. But if we get to know a woman by her actions and behavior then we shouldn't just judge her by her appearance on the outside. The bible says that when a man finds a wife he finds a good thing; the Word of God didn't say that when a man finds a wife he finds a loose woman, a bad woman, or an immoral woman.
A virtuous woman's character consist of: discretion, discreetness, sacredness, and modesty. A modest woman's worth is not found in wearing revealing clothes, massive amounts of make-up on the face, or how cruel she treats others; but her worth is the opposite.

Proverbs 31 A Virtuous Woman
♥ Who can find a virtuous wife? For her worth is far above rubies.
The heart of her husband safely trusts her; so he will have no lack of gain.
She does him good and not evil all the days of her life.
She seeks wool and flax, and willingly works with her hands.
She is like the merchant ships; she brings her food from afar.
She also rises while it is yet night, and provides food for her household and a portion for her maidservants.
She considers a field and buys it; from her profits she plants a vineyard. She girds herself with strength, and strengthens her arms, she perceives that her merchandise is good and her lamp does not go out by night.
She stretches out her hands to the distaff, and her hand holds the spindle.
She extends her hand to the poor, yes; she reaches out her hands to the needy. ♥

Verse of Scripture
Treasures of wickedness profit nothing, but righteousness delivers from death. The Lord will not allow the righteous soul to famish, but He casts away the desire of the wicked.
He or She who has a slack hand becomes poor, but the hand of the diligent makes rich.
Wise people store up knowledge, but the mouth of the foolish is near destruction.
A foolish woman is clamorous; She is simple, and knows nothing.
But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come: For of this sort are those who creep into households and make captives of gullible women loaded down with sins, led away by various lusts. Proverbs

Women of Righteousness
Many woman have been hurt in some way, in this life. That doesn't mean that woman have to behave in a wrong way just because we have been hurt. Two wrongs don't make things right. Never let someone's bad behaviors make you lose yourself as a good woman. Woman can be released from hurt, and God will forgive you for all your wrong doings. Just begin to forgive yourself for the things that you have done wrong.
I read a book in 1997 that helped me with all the emotions I had inside as a woman. I was trying to be the best woman I knew to be. And this book by "T. D. Jakes," Woman Thou Art Loosed really had me to feel, and release the hurt as a woman, so that I can move on without looking into the pass for answers.
Further, the wise woman builds her house, but the foolish pulls it down with her hands. (Proverbs)
