She lays her hands to the distaff, and her hands hold the spindle. KJV
Key Word: SPINDLE
Reflect: She layeth - By her own example she provokes her servants to labour. And
although in these latter and more delicate times, such mean employments are
grown out of fashion among great persons, yet they were not so in former ages,
neither in other countries, nor in this land; whence all women unmarried unto
this day are called in the language of our law, Spinsters. (Wesley)
Woman of Virtue, God is spinning a beautiful tapestry out of your life. He's spun in good times, hard times, times of pain, times of joy, times of disappointment, he's also woven in times of satisfaction and reward. The pattern of our lives may seem non-descript or undiscernable, but if we keep spinning, keep asking, seeking, and knocking, we will have the pleasure of seeing the garment of our lives as God intended in it's completed state. So, Virtuous Woman, I urge you, don't give up or give in for in due season, you will reap if you do not faint!
ProACTION: Take an old worn garment, cut out a square, and write upon it Jeremiah 29:11. Take time today to thank God simply for weaving your story and completing the tapestry of your life. Remember, if he knit you together in your Mother's womb (Psalm 139), God knows exactly how to get the glory out of the tapestry of your life!
