Reading about the industrious woman in Proverbs 31 makes one listener think of her own mother.

It was just amazing how her time multiplied and she still, I mean even when she was in the hospital before she died, she told us, she said, I can still do more than any of y'all put together. And that was the truth.

It's Thursday, March 8th, and you're listening to Revive Our Hearts with Nancy Lee DeMoss.

For the last few weeks, Nancy's been introducing us to an incredible woman described in Proverbs 31.

This in-depth verse-by-verse study will open your eyes to the rich content Proverbs 31 holds for every woman.

We'll hear from Nancy in just a minute, but during her teaching, a lot of listeners have thought of their own moms.

Let's hear how they saw Proverbs 31 being lived out while they grew up.

My name is Holly Elif, and as I was thinking last night about Nancy teaching on verse 13 of Proverbs 31. She talked several times about being a woman who worked

with her hands. I thought about helping my mother care for her mom, who lived with us part of the

year. She had muscular dystrophy. And I can remember my mom taking care of her mother, which at the time I thought was just

kind of a normal thing to do, never occurred to me how much of her time that took, how difficult

that was, and how many hours she must have spent using her hands to care not just for her

children, but also for her mother.

And so it was very precious last night as the Lord just flooded my mind with those little small things. And now with my older

children, they remember details of some things we did really only once or twice, but they talk about them as if we did

them over and over and over. And I just wanted to encourage us today to realize that even those

tiny things that seem insignificant are very precious to our kids.

My name is Beverly Lowe's.

In September, I moved to Fayetteville to take care of my elderly parents.

And what a pleasure and how neat that is.

And I know exactly what you're saying, Holly.

You don't realize what parents do until you're doing it yourself.
