Lady of Virtue

Marking yourself in the glow of service lady of virtue are you along significance-height shining beyond worldly stardom... while becoming a blessing by God's grace. Overcoming poverty's grip your industriousness with persevering courage helped lift your family... granting your siblings opportunities to progress. Poured out with heavenly provisions you constantly reach-out with care while sharing the Gospel... and aiding those in need. Exemplifying helpfulness’ gesture constantly revealing your kind soul you're always extending generosity... attested by your husband and children. Magnifying the Lord* with praise as your heart's priority you're a paragon, worthy of emulation mortifying flesh with the Spirit's sword... since your love anchored upon faith* in Christ radiates.
*Proverbs 31:30 Favour is deceitful, and beauty is vain: but a woman that feareth the LORD, she shall be praised. August 30, 2019 Edited on July 1, 2020 In loving memory of Sis. Eleanor Villarino 1st place, "In Loving Memory" Poetry Contest Sponsored by Regina McIntosh; judged on 7/5/2020.

Beata, you have written a lovely tribute to the Proverbs 31 woman. "Give her the reward she has earned and let her works bring her praise at the city gate". Congratulations on your #1 win. Grace and peace ~ John
