Friday Funnies BONUS: The Quarrelsome Wife

Posted in Friday Funnies
I hope you all enjoyed my newest series, "21 Days to More Godly Communication".  I just couldn't resist including this bonus on my Friday Funnies this week. 


"A quarrelsome wife is like a constant dripping on a rainy day;" -Proverbs 27:15


I am a goofball by nature.  I find it more fun to teach with humor.  Occasionally I am told that humor has no place in Christianity or the Bible.   I beg to differ.  Pay attention to the Lord's sense of humor as He instructs wives.

  1. Proverbs 19:13
    A foolish son is his father's ruin, and a quarrelsome wife is like a constant dripping.

  2. Proverbs 21:9
    Better to live on a corner of the roof than share a house with a quarrelsome wife.

  3. Proverbs 21:19
    Better to live in a desert than with a quarrelsome and ill-tempered wife.

  4. Proverbs 25:24
    Better to live on a corner of the roof than share a house with a quarrelsome wife.

  5. Proverbs 27:15
    A quarrelsome wife is like a constant dripping on a rainy day;

Side Bar:

One of my pet peeves is how "Hollywierd" insists on displaying family dynamics these days.  Children are generally in charge and disrespectful.  The all-knowing wife usually resorts to nagging her husband who is portrayed as clueless, overbearing and annoying.   Sit Com wives are depicted as almost verbally abusive to their husbands.  Now look back over the list of verses here.  Did you catch just how many times the Lord mentions the quarrelsome wife in scripture?

Perhaps these Sit Com wives should take the log out of their own eye before they attempt to take the speck out of their husband's. 



Food for thought...

About Me

I was raised by two Atheists of Jewish heritage, married a non practicing Catholic and became a non denominational Christian due, in part, to some Amway meetings and a Jehovah's Witness who came to my door. My purple crayon writes with humor and almost always a little out of the lines. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This blog is my creative and fun way of sharing my thoughts on communication skills relating mostly to homeschooling and sharing and defending the faith. It also reveals a bit about how the Lord took this shy Agnostic girl and allowed her to find her voice and her purpose, a zany voice to the Christian community with insight as to what unbelievers need to hear about Christ Jesus. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I'll share news items, quotes, family friendly humor, tips, trivia, and my newest feature: Question of the Week. I invite you to come share your thoughts! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ For more creative fun with JoJo you can visit www.ArtofEloquence.com ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in pictures of silver." -Proverbs 25:11
