"The parable [of the ten virgins] tells what happened
as all ten young women waited for the bridegroom.
The bridegroom came at the darkest hour, when least expected.
It was midnight, and the foolish five had run out of oil.
You might wonder why the five wise virgins could not
share their oil with the other five.
It was not selfishness on their part.
Spiritual preparedness cannot be shared in an instant
because we each fill our lamps drop by drop in our daily living."
~James E. Faust
