The Virtuous Wife

The Virtuous Wife

Who can find a virtuous wife? For her worth is far above rubies. The heart of her husband safely trusts her; so he will have no lack of gain. She does him good and not evil all the days of her life. She seeks wool and flax, and willingly works with her hands. She is like the merchant ships, she brings her food from afar. She also rises while it is yet night, and provides food for her household, and a portion for her maidservants. She considers a field and buys it; from her profits she plants a vineyard. She girds herself with strength, and strengthens her arms. She perceives that her merchandise is good, and her lamp does not go out by night. She stretches out her hands to the distaff, and her hand holds the spindle. She extends her hand to the poor, yes, she reaches out her hands to the needy. She is not afraid of snow for her household, for all her household is clothed with scarlet. She makes tapestry for herself; her clothing is fine linen and purple. Her husband is known in the gates, when he sits among the elders of the land. She makes linen garments and sells them, and supplies sashes for the merchants. Strength and honor are her clothing; she shall rejoice in time to come. She opens her mouth with wisdom, and on her tongue is the law of kindness. She watches over the ways of her household, and does not eat the bread of idleness. Her children rise up and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praises her: “Many daughters have done well, but you excel them all.” Charm is deceitful and beauty is passing, but a woman who fears the Lord, she shall be praised. Give her of the fruit of her hands, and let her own works praise her in the gates.

Just to ponder not to preach

We certainly live in a high tech society . Technology is a very important factor in the success or failure of almost any business or endeavour today. In my search for excellence I've found that in the end when all is said and done our most important resources are still human resources . People are important and the individual personal touch still has an amazing impact . People for people and people who really care about people will make a difference . Who knows maybe I'm just a little old fashioned but I still think people matter I'm not saying we need to get back to rotary phones , party lines ,typewriters or wringer washers what I am saying is let's not throw the baby out with the bath water . Person to person heart to heart we can have the best of both worlds if I have to choose one over the other I want you to know I choose you over your fancy computer.
