What-Does-the-Bible-Say-Rick-Boyer2Proverbs 25:24: “It is better to live in a corner of the roof than in a house shared with a contentious woman.”

There is always a temptation to take someone for granted, no matter how much you love him or her, when you see each other day in and day out. In fact, it’s easy to slip into carelessness in the relationship. This verse is a timely reminder to both sexes.

Husband, if you have a good wife be thankful. All of us know men who are married to women who make their lives miserable. That doesn’t mean that the husband is any better than the wife, just that when there are conflicts that cause the wife to be contentious life is miserable for the husband as well. If you have a cheerful, godly wife give thanks to God and to her as well.

Wife, there will be moments in any marriage when you are tempted to be contentious. Your husband is a sinner and he will fail you at times. When you’re tempted to react, try to remember this verse. Maybe the thought of just how serious this relationship is, will help you to count to ten before speaking.
