Why virtue?
Who can [be] a virtuous woman? for her price is far above rubies. (~Proverbs 31:10)

Proverbs 32
Soooo... one thing that bothers me about the Proverbs 31 description, is that
it's not near complete! I mean the "Martha" is all there- going, doing,
having... but what about her "Mary" counterpart? Any woman who wants to be
virtuous has GOT to go first to the Giver of her virtue, the Author of her very
life, and sit and delight in her Savior. Virtue starts on
the inside and finds it's way out; it does not depend on external things, nor
will the external enhance it. Unless Christ is the One cultivating virtue in
you, there's a long, disappointing road ahead of you. Unless He is the motive
behind all your efforts, they're all in vain. Only He can provide that strength
needed for the busyness of every day life. Thus, I think Proverbs needs yet
another chapter! =)
