Christians believe that a woman of integrity is a gift from God that is more precious than a jewel. That woman is a precious jewel that cannot be compared to anyone else. We learn about such women in the Bible.
For example, we learn about Ruth. Ruth was a Moabite woman who respected her mother-in-law Naomi. Despite suffering, Ruth decided to stay with Naomi. She decided that she would never leave her mother-in-law. This strong faith in her God led her to a new life where she met Boaz. This story of Ruth gives us proof of loyalty.
In the Bible, we learn about another woman of great character whose name is Queen Esther. Queen Esther risked her life to save her people from a terrible situation. Queen Esther showed her deep love for her God.
In the Old Testament of the Bible, we learn about an honest, hardworking, idealistic and devoted woman. She takes care of her family and helps the poor. In the Old Testament of the Bible, this woman is an example for all of us that inspires us to live an honest life.
In the New Testament of the Bible, we also learn about Mary. Here we learn about Mary’s great character.
Christians identify a woman with an honest character and ideals by her deep faith in God, love, and a tendency to be honest. God’s blessings are always in her life.
