what does it take

Ruth Gleaning-Tissot
"And now, my daughter, fear not; I will do to thee all that thou requirest: for all the city of my people doth know that thou art a virtuous woman." Ruth 3:11

It's interesting that the story of the Proverbs 31 woman and Ruth both lead us to a picture of virtuous women, a woman who loves God, sacrifices for others, works hard, is charitable, and one who guards her tongue.  I don't think a girl wakes up one morning and says, "From now I on, I will be virtuous." As we seek to live God's will, virtue will follow. If a woman lives according to God's will and patterns her life after the Savior, she is virtuous.It's an attitude instead of any specific action.

Reading the scriptures and keeping this journal are my delight. I do not keep an online journal to preach to anyone but myself. I like this format, because I can add pictures and correct my writing easier. If you enjoy reading it, I am happy. If you feel offended, please, realize it is not my intention to offend but to teach myself. No negative comments will not be published.
