My name is Melissa Ringstaff and I've been blogging here at A Virtuous Woman since 2001. I'm a pastor's wife and homeschooling mom living in the beautiful Appalachian Mountains of Southeastern KY. I believe in finding freedom from perfection and living life with purpose and I want to help you do exactly that. I'm so glad you've stopped by to visit with me. I hope we can be friends!

“Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to m “Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path.” - Psalm 119:105 Tip #1: Set aside a regular time to read your Bible. Choose a time when you can be free from distractions and focus on God’s word. Tip #2: Choose a comfortable and peaceful spot to read. Create a cozy atmosphere with a cup of tea or coffee, a comfortable chair, and some soothing music. Tip #3: Use a study Bible or a devotional guide to help you understand the text and apply it to your life. Tip #4: Pray before you read. Ask God to speak to you through His word and to help you understand what you are reading. Tip #5: Take notes or journal your thoughts as you read. Write down any insights, questions, or ideas that come to mind. Remember, reading your Bible is an opportunity to connect with God and grow in your faith. Make it a priority and enjoy the journey! #proverbs31 #prover31women #prayerlife #biblestudymoments #morningdevotional #biblejournaling #womenoffaith #jesuscalling #avirtuouswoman #10virtues #proverbs31ministries #homemaking #homemaker #wearethehomemakers #dearsister
“Above all, keep loving one another earnestly, s “Above all, keep loving one another earnestly, since love covers a multitude of sins.” 1 Peter 4:8 If someone were to ask you what you value most in your life, I’m sure that your relationships with your friends and family would be right at the top of the list. But for most of us, the way we spend our time doesn’t always show it. We all know that how we spend our time shows what we prioritize, much more than what we say or think. What are you prioritizing? And what is it saying to your loved ones? 10 Ways to Make Someone You Love Feel Special 1. Give him a heartfelt compliment. 2. Praise him in front of other people. 3. Don’t multitask while he’s talking to you, give him your undivided attention. 4. Write him a thank-you note for something he did or said. 5. Buy him a gift for “just because.” 6. Give him a big smile and hug when he comes home. Show him that you missed him. 7. Tell him you’re proud of him. 8. Ask him to teach you something. 9. Remember the names of his closest friends. 10. Ask him for his opinion. I have 10 more ideas on the blog today! Link is in the bio. #proverbs31woman #proverbs31wife #homemakers #traditionalwife #traditionalvalues #marriagetips #loveyourspouse

“She opens her mouth with wisdom, and the teachi “She opens her mouth with wisdom, and the teaching of kindness is on her tongue.” Proverbs 31:26 Have a cheerful disposition. ❤️ When I was growing up, my mom always woke us up with a sweet good morning song and a cheerful attitude. She’s still my example all these years later. My own kids have expressed their appreciation for starting the day with a cheerful word. My mom is a Proverbs 31 woman for sure. Starting the day with a cheerful attitude and smiling at your family definitely makes a huge difference!! Put in the effort if you tend to wake up feeling grumpy. Your kids and husband will appreciate your cheerful demeanor. You have so much power to start the day right for your family!! #morningroutine #proverbs31ministries #proverbs31woman #10virtues #dailybibleverse #jesuscalling #shereadstruth #jesusistheway
