HI you may be wondering this, and I am wondering the same thing. In the world that we live in an ideal woman or man could only be a fantasy. The ideal woman is gentle and kind that is expressed at 1 Peter 3:4, but there is a big chance she has never developed the personality that she should have done. We are never to forget that we were created in the image of God so that a natural characteristic should have materialized through us, Genesis 2:26-27. This is a very important fact to teach us that mankind is surely off the mark so to speak. Well, what does an ideal woman look like in the Bible at Proverbs 31:10-31? The picture painted here is a mature woman and not a girl or a young woman, she has a family, and the Bible says that she is honored and trusted by her husband and children.
Proverbs 31:28-31
Living Bible
28 Her children stand and bless her; so does her husband. He praises her with these words: 29 “There are many fine women in the world, but you are the best of them all!”
30 Charm can be deceptive and beauty doesn’t last, but a woman who fears and reverences God shall be greatly praised. 31 Praise her for the many fine things she does. These good deeds of hers shall bring her honor and recognition from people of importance.
