6. Am I content to be “at home”? Am I finding my “fulfillment” through reverencing and serving my husband and family?

affection to a man other than my husband?

morally pure?

16. Am I a “wall” or a “door” (Song of Songs 8:12)? Am I a “loose” woman? Do I communicate to the men around me that I
am “available”? Does my demeanor invite them to “partake” of intimate

looks, or behavior?

17. Is there anything about my speech, actions, dress, or attitudes that could defraud the men around me?

unbecoming for a woman of God? Am I expressing admiration for a man that
should more appropriately come from his wife?

19. Does my dress help men to keep their thoughts pure and Christ-centered? Is my dress feminine and modest?

woman for my walk with God and others?

“Who can find a virtuous woman? for her price is far above rubies” (Prov. 31:10).
