Prov. 31 says a godly woman will open her mouth with wisdom. And what does that imply? That she has been in the Word of God,yes?! :)
Titus 2 also says that the older women are to be teachers of "good things".
One "good thing" that I can think of is the teaching and importance of "meditating on the Word day and night"...for therein will we find strength to live a godly life. Ps. 1:2
It also says the older women are to teach the younger women to be sober. What does it mean to be sober? It means according to the Strong's concordance - " to make of sound mind". And how do we get a "sound mind"? By being in the Word a lot, right? By being "transformed by the renewing of your mind"...through the Word of God.
How God delights to know that his children are meditating in His Word...
I think God delights to see the sisters having "spiritual discussion" and sharing His Word, too....for that is how we grow spiritually and encourage one another. :)
Learning how to love our husbands and children and learning how to be discreet, chaste, keepers at home, good, and obedient to our husbands is important. But perhaps the first thing on the list....learning to be sober...and in the Word of God...is the thing we need to put first. For how can we learn the rest if we aren't sitting at the feet of Jesus and "listening" and being strengthened by Him through His Word?
