“Who can find a 1virtuous wife? For her worth is far above rubies.” Proverbs 31:10
I, the Lord Jesus, am seeking and searching for a woman of 2valor. I am looking for a woman with an 3excellent spirit who is pure in heart. I desire a bride who is 4spotless, righteous and courageous. I long for my wife to be my partner in all things, one who will stand and fight by my side. Who can find such a woman? Where can I find this bride of infinite 5inner beauty? Surely her worth and value would far surpass 6precious stones, exquisite pearls and rare diamonds. Such a bride would be a 7crown upon her husband’s head. She would adorn me with great honor and splendor! Who can find her? Truly, my Father has promised to find and 8prepare a bride for me who even exceeds my desires – she will be everything I have longed for and more! Indeed, I place such a high value on my bride that I would give up my very life for her sake. My Father also will 9give everything for her and to her, that she may be mine for eternity. I will find her, I will woo her, I will win her, I will betroth her to myself, and then on the day that my Father decides, I will at last marry her!

Hello ,
I wanted permission to use the picture, of the bride on this page is this its original source or is it from another site?
Hi Becky,
I believe I found this picture at http://heavenawaits.wordpress.com/why-isn%E2%80%99t-jesus-back-yet/ – but I’m not sure that it’s even the original source? I should have given credit for where I got the picture – it’s so hard to trace pictures back to their original these days!
Blessings,
Jacquie
