Idleness. No, but I said sick

She eats not the bread of idleness, v. 27

Savior, hear my humble cry.

“go home”, “take it easy”, “get some sleep”. All that I hear is not my excuse for idleness, as sickness seems to bring. The virtuous woman loves her business better than her ease or her pleasure… and has more true satisfaction in having given meat to her household and is not searching for praise- for Her own works will praise her.

A simple cold has shown my idleness.
