Who can find a virtuous woman? for her price is far above rubies.

Pro 31:10 Who can find a virtuous woman? for her price is far above rubies.
Good morning again friends, well today is Valentines Day and I hope that you all have something special for that special person in your life! Today I am going to surprise my wife by taking her out to eat at our favorite restaurant (McDonalds), just kidding. I am planning on taking her to the Olive Garden we always enjoy our time there whenever we get the chance. Well the above verse for today explains a lot, and the more I think about it there is no price in the world for me to even think about getting rid of my wife, I mean I just got her trained! (AGAIN KIDDING) My wife is the most understanding women in the world, she married me. I was thinking about our life together and no it is not like the story book weddings, we are married couples that don’t go by a script; however we do have the blessed Word of God in our lives to encourage us, strengthen us, and guide us in our marriage. I am so tired of young people and the false sense of the word (love) and how the world uses that word so flippantly. I encourage you today to look over the word love in its biblical sense and see if that is what you see going on in today’s society! Lets just start with a virtuous woman, I dare say that they are becoming harder and harder to find (not that I am looking), however I am trying to teach my daughter about virtuous women and what the Bible says are one. Friends there are no good role models to point her way, except for her mother and others in the church house that are good examples. Lets face it friends with this worlds attitude on the word love and its promotion of promiscuity everywhere you look it is becoming harder to show our young ones what true love is about. I heard the preacher say in the message the other night true love knows how to say NO, try that one on for size in this world of get it your way right away and see how quickly a man would dump a woman, or a woman leave a man. Just to show you how conservative I may think sometimes here is a line that I have kind of enjoyed saying to my daughter whenever these stupid TV shows promote young children "dating", show me in the Bible where dating is and I'll let you go! Friends we are to be raising up our children and preparing them for marriage, not try every toy out till you find the one you’re most thrilled with, and then throw it away when it becomes "old". Friend’s marriage has lost it sanctity in this world, I mean where else can you be married, then walk around the corner and file for divorce? I am so saddened by this younger generation of kids growing up because of the shallow society that we live in. Well, friends bad news, as I was typing my dear wife called from work and said that she won't be going anywhere tonight she just caught the flu bug that’s been going around...looks like I will have to take a rain check on the Olive Garden, however according to 1Co 13:4 Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up, it is time for me to be the husband that I ought to and suffer with her. Friends I hope you have a wonderful day today, and that this would help you think about your relationship with your loved one, and if you are not married then I encourage you to pray and seek the will of God and wait for that person that God would have in your life! Believe me friend when the person God would have prepared for you arrives you will know if you stay virtuous and humble!
