Who, indeed?

Can find a virtuous woman or man? Who, even knows what a virtuous woman is? Mommies love to direct their children about who to befriend and who not to befriend. Quiet and good children...Ambitious and gregarious children, Hopeful and honest children, Generous and sensitive children. Stay away from the sneaky and selfish children, the sullen and timid children, the uninterested and self absorbed children, the uncurious and inactive children, most importantly in our family, those that cannot bear to listen and follow directions. If you cannot listen to father in devotions, we cannot bear to have someone like that in the family. We will tolerate you, but God has discipline for such.
I spent hours listening to your grandfather and God has blest every word, for good to my soul. I didn't understand why the children didn't want to listen. I know now that they had heard the words many many times. The first hundred times they were still new to me. Now, the words are precious in my remembrance. A cup of cold water to an elderly person is the time you would spend listening to the stories of the past. The word of God states that they "overcame, by the Blood of the lamb and the word of their testimony..." We receive testimony from the Word of God and from listening to the elderly testify of the grace that helped them to stand.
Listen to your elders and be virtuous. Stay away from those who would discourage you from that.
