A complete difference between boys and girls are the questions they ask and the questions I ask mine. In the beginning of Proverbs thirty one the woman seems a little annoyed to continually be asking and answering questions from the son and goes on to give him a lesson. I rarely have had my daughters pepper me with questions. They just seem to run off willy nilly with this thought and that thought and it is always my aim to reign them in to one or more specific goals. Staying on task is the order of the day. Beginning a story and completing it. Beginning a tapestry and completing it. Questions about where your minds are going daughter are intended to force you to articulate your goal and intention and thus perservere more intently to the goal.
Not a one of you have the same ambitions as I. That doesn't matter, what matters is, that you continue to the accomplishment. Perhaps a school for the deaf after much study. Perhaps a jewelry making design center and design life, perhaps a political socialite; whatever you do, weave your ambitions for the glory of God. Don't run off half cocked, because your mother and your father embarrassed you in the way that we do. Act decidedly and be the sharpened arrow in the quiver which accomplishes the will of God in this world. I love you!
