Bless me with Your Light Lord,
Shining for 'The Son'.
Striving as Your servant,
for Proverbs 31.

A humble heart,
working hard,
living off the land.
Sharing all Your Blessings,
reaching out Your Hand.

There is nothing good in me Lord,
aware 'we all fall short.'
With Saving Grace,
I seek Your Face,
hoping to be taught.

Bless me with Your Guidance Lord,
that I may grow in You.
Reading from Your Word,
as Wisdom I pursue.

I may not ever make the grade,
of Proverbs 31.
Regardless, I can daily strive,
until this Race is Run.

If one reads Proverbs 31 after reading your words, it is obvious how stirring the message is.


Amazing, Proverbs ends with the importance of women in holding the world together.

Thanks for teaching me a vital lesson.

Ya ever get the feeling God has us reading each other's work for a reason?

:-)

May God bless and keep you always writing such amazing things.

Sincerely,
Dan Blankenship

Yes, Elizabeth, none of us may be able to qualify for having made the grade of Proverbs 31, but you have made the grade of Proverbs 31:10 "Who can find a virtuous woman? For her price is far above rubies."...You are certainly worth more than rubies to so many people...Helen
