The virtuous woman
The book of Proverbs ends by expounding on the virtuous woman. I've known that term — virtuous woman — for about 30 years. Until fairly recently, I didn't have a clue what it looked like, however. Everyone reading this blog probably knows I'm in love with a woman named Cindy. But the readers of this blog and even the author know next to nothing about her. Yes, I love her. But what do I really know about her? Our communication was brief. Our time together was illicit. We made mistakes. I won't argue that. None of that negates what I saw in her. God doesn't punish His children forever. All of that was over a long time ago. But, my thoughts for her remain much the same, and my heart sings the sweetest songs when it thinks of her. She is the closest I've come to seeing a virtuous woman in action. Yes, there is no need to point out that no one is perfect. Still, she is many of those things listed in Proverbs. And I am truly glad to have gotten to know her....
