My 2025 Theme Verses: Ezra 7:10 (ESV) For Ezra had set his heart to study the Law of the LORD, and to do it and to teach his statutes and rules in Israel. Daniel 1:8 (ESV) But Daniel resolved that he would not defile himself with the king’s food, or with the wine that he drank. Therefore he asked the chief of the eunuchs to allow him not to defile himself.

He will trust her - Proverbs 31
In today's marriage "industry" the ability to "trust" a spouse has been shattered, broken, watered-down and brought into suspect. In Proverbs 31:11 we read that when a man fines an "excellent" wife (31:10) his heart will "trust" in her and he will have no "lack" of gain. God's plan for marriage seems pretty plain and simply. He provided a partner for the man that would have some relationship with man and cause him to relax and be satisfied in that relationship. Because she is a woman who "fears God" she will be trusted by the man in this relationship. His trust of her is directly tied to her trust of God. That is so simply it is breath-taking. God intended trust to be built upon, not our mutual ability to "prove" our abilities, but on our moral character and Godly compass. God makes it simply. It is the evil in our hears and the evil of the world and demonic realm that causes the lack of trust. God wanted the marriage to be a perfect example of His bound with us. That is why it is so under attack. Trust in another can only be found when we have trust in our Maker.
