“…and let her own works praise her in the gates” (Proverbs 31:31b).
Abigail was an ordinary woman. Faced with a calamity, she trusted God and did what she had to do. By doing so, she averted a disaster. Remember her courage along with all the other characteristics she possessed. She was unique and we should praise God for what she accomplished.
When the story of our lives is ended, what will people remember most about us? At times we may feel like a “hidden jewel.” No one knows our name or notices what we do.
However if we follow Abigail’s example, we will shine on like a fiery, red ruby.
