With the wedding coming up soon, I've been thinking about one of my favorite scriptures. Proverbs 31 is a great description of a godly woman. Verses 28 and 29 are my favorite. I hope my family can one day say those things about me.
10An (A)excellent wife, who can find?
For her worth is far (B)above jewels.
11The heart of her husband trusts in her,
And he will have no lack of gain.
12She does him good and not evil
All the days of her life.
13She looks for wool and flax
And works with her hands in delight.
14She is like (C)merchant ships;
She brings her food from afar.
15She (D)rises also while it is still night
And (E)gives food to her household
And portions to her maidens.
16She considers a field and buys it;
From her earnings she plants a vineyard.
17She (F)girds herself with strength
And makes her arms strong.
18She senses that her gain is good;
Her lamp does not go out at night.
19She stretches out her hands to the distaff,
And her hands grasp the spindle.
20She (G)extends her hand to the poor,
And she stretches out her hands to the needy.
21She is not afraid of the snow for her household,
For all her household are (H)clothed with scarlet.
22She makes (I)coverings for herself;
Her clothing is (J)fine linen and (K)purple.
23Her husband is known (L)in the gates,
When he sits among the elders of the land.
24She makes (M)linen garments and sells them,
And supplies belts to the tradesmen.
25Strength and (N)dignity are her clothing,
And she smiles at the future.
26She (O)opens her mouth in wisdom,
And the teaching of kindness is on her tongue.
27She looks well to the ways of her household,
And does not eat the (P)bread of idleness.
28Her children rise up and bless her;
Her husband also, and he praises her, saying:
29"Many daughters have done nobly,
But you excel them all."
30Charm is deceitful and beauty is vain,
But a woman who (Q)fears the LORD, she shall be praised.
31Give her the product of her hands,
And let her works praise her in the gates.

Hillary goes to school
Hillary Clinton goes to a primary school in New York to talk about the world. After her talk she offers a question time.One little boy puts up his hand. The Senator asks him what
his name is.
"Kenneth."
"And what is your question, Kenneth?"
"I have three questions: "First - whatever happened to the medical health care plan you were paid to develop during your husband's eight years in the office as President?
"Second - why would you run for President after yourhusband shamed the office?
"Third - whatever happened to all those things you took when you left the White House?"
Just then the bell rings for recess. Hillary Clinton informs the kids that they will continue after recess. When they resume, Hillary says, "Okay, where were we? Oh, that's right, question time.Who has a question?"A different little boy puts his hand up. Hillary points him out and asks him what his name is. "Larry."
"And what is your question, Larry?"
"I have five questions: "First - whatever happened to the medical health care plan you were paid to develop during your husband's eight years in the office as President?
"Second - why would you run for President after yourhusband shamed the office?
"Third - whatever happened to all those things you took when you left the White House?
"Fourth - why did the recess bell go off 20 minutes early?
"Fifth - Where's Kenneth?"
