Wisdom

Last night I attended a women's ministry event that was so cool. The theme of it was "Churcy Do's and Don'ts". The set up was really cool too. We had five older women, one as old as in her 90's, the others were in their 60's and 70's. These women sat up in front of all us younger women and just shared their wisdom with us. There were questions that varied anywhere from "Should we wear skirts in church?" to "How do you get your children to be respectful in church?"
The wisdom that these women had was just do amazing! I have never seen such Godly wisdom from a woman. Sure from a man (I can name plenty of pastors who have a ton of wisdom), but never from a woman.
The next four years that I'm here, I just want them to pour into me and I just want to soak up their wisdom and godliness. It was so refreshing and just really amazing!

"Likewise, teach the older women to be reverent in the way they live, not to be slanderers or addicted to much wine, but to teach what is good. Then they can train the younger women to love their husbands and children, to be self-controlled and pure, to be busy at home, to be kind, and to be subject to their husbands, so that no one will malign the word of God."
~Titus 2:3-6
