Proverbs Thirty-One Quilt

What kind of fancy quilt
Are you stitching up today?
Are you sewing a quilt 
In the Proverbs Thirty-one way?
With each quarter embroidered 
By busy hands of love
Living to please your Saviour
Who is watching from above.
In one block of your quilt
Do you submit to your spouse?
And creatively in another
Are you cleaning up the house?
What about the children
Are they stitched within a square?
Do you stay home within your place
And give them all your care?
What about the family money
Are you thrifty with your dimes?
Have you designated a quilt piece
On how you spend your time?
A devotional time with God
Should be the center of your quilt.
For everyone of your squares
On Jesus Christ should be built.
Your virtuous woman tapestry 
Should have a ruffle on display
Of all the many blessings
God dotes on you each day.

Smile ˜ A very beautiful poem ˜ And first & foremost hopefully her precious heart knows that, HER HEAVENLY LOVING FATHER * Dwells inside herself ˜ Loving her and filling her, with all of, HIS BEAUTY * Then she can be like Mary sitting aside her love and being loved and held ˜ Everything else is just icing atop joys everlasting cake * And I love Proverbs 31 ˜ But then again, I have always loved the beauty of a woman * Love always, John!:) ˜

Thank you so much for those words. The scriptures are a blessing to my heart. My favorite is the very book of Psalms and its loaded with poetry.
