A Wife Praised by Her Husband
Proverbs 31:28
Her children arise up, and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praises her.


The late Robert Moffat had a wife of rare excellence. For more than fifty years she shared his toils in South Africa. The Secretary of the London Missionary Society says, "After their return from Africa, while talking over their labours at the Mission House, Mrs. Moffat said, 'Robert affirms that I do not hinder him in his work.' 'No, indeed,' replied Dr. Moffat, 'but I can affirm that she has often sent me out to missionary work for months together, and in my absence has managed the station better than I could have done myself.' Her husband's first exclamation on finding her gone was, 'For forty-three years I have had her to pray for me.'"
