That phrase has been in my mind constantly..."Give a man a fish, you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish, you feed him for a lifetime."
I'm looking for a creative alternative phrase for women.

Give a woman a ...???? & you

(?) (dress?)(employ) (free)

her for a day.
Give a woman a sewing machine, you ____??? for a lifetime.

Say to them, may the Lord bless you and protect you, May the Lord smile upon you and be gracious to you. May the Lord show you His favor and give you His peace. (Numbers 6:23-26)

See Marian, that's what I'm talking about. I like that very much! Thank you! Here's a spin on yours Marian;
Sew a woman an apron, you dress her for a day. Teach a woman to sew an apron, you dress her for a lifetime....

Say to them, may the Lord bless you and protect you, May the Lord smile upon you and be gracious to you. May the Lord show you His favor and give you His peace. (Numbers 6:23-26)
