Proverbs 31:10
"Who can find a Virtuous Woman? For her price is far above rubies"
Basically, the question is, where are all the good women? The virtuous woman is a description of what women, wives, and potential wives should be. The type of woman a man should choose to marry. So what is a virtuous woman? The word virtuous means "strength." It refers to a women’s strength of character which means she fears God, she’s trustworthy, and she lives a moral life. These are characteristics we all should strive for. No one is perfect, each of us has failed in these areas, but God looks at the heart and how sincere you are in “really trying” to live virtuously. When you demonstrate a lifestyle of good character, people take note. It makes you attractive and sets you apart from those who choose not to live virtuously.
In this verse, the word rubies actually means pink pearls or red coral (a precious stone). These stones were considered valuable, precious, and very rare in the bible days. If your worth as a virtuous woman is far above something valuable, precious, and rare, that would make you extremely hard to find. This is a good thing because, women who curse like sailors, live promiscuously, and have no standards come a dime a dozen in the world we live in today. You have to be different! A virtuous man will search and seek after a virtuous woman and "God will give him favor in finding her" click link. When a good man finds something extremely precious and rare, he will care for it, appreciate it, and never let it go.
If you’re single, don’t worry about never finding love. Love will find you. Here are three keys: Reverence God, live right and make wise choices. Know your worth and don’t settle! You are a rare gem and God wants the best for you.
Psalm 84:11, “For the Lord God is a sun and shield; The LORD gives grace and glory; No good thing does He withhold from those who walk uprightly." Believe in His word, Virtuous Woman!

I really loved the artilce. I know how G-d uses all of his creators to get his message across!! And how all of the forces can distract us from doing or really hearing G-d will.I really like the message of the sermon do. If you know your truth and your aliened with g-d you should ask G-d to give you the strength to move forward in faith despite the fears. Thanks for the positive encouragement for us single ladies. I believe if I continue to get close to G-d the right righteous man will know what a true gem all his holy daughters are. Blessings Ty great job.
