She will do him good and not evil all the days of her life.
Proverbs 31:12
My friend PolyJohn told me a story about his grandma. As I have said before my friend and me loved to talked about women, families, relationships and how to maintain them. He told me that the HOME of every man was dependent on how strong the wife or wives of such men. No matter how good a man and responsible he is, if his wife is foolish…then in almost all cases such a family will come to ruins!
He told me about his grandma’s wisdom. Here the story of old wise grandma.
Grandma was married to a drunkard and gambler. But would you believe they never quarreled even for once? The old wise woman knew her wife crafts so well that she tamed a drunkard and a gambler!
One time when grandpa was able to sold their pigs for ten thousand pesos; he happened to pass by a wake for a dead neighbor. The old man went to bet the money and began to lose three thousand pesos. Hoping to get it back he gambled and gambled till all the money from the sales of the pigs were gone!
He went home and told his wife. And do you think wise grandma went to make a scene or made their house a hell for him? No, the wise women said: When I married you, I already knew you were like that…the ten thousand was just money…i have accepted you as you are, so it is okay…well earn money again…so relax! I forgave you!
1 Peter 3:1 Likewise, ye wives, be in subjection to your own husbands; that, if any obey not the word, they also may without the word be won by the conversation of the wives;
1 Peter 3:2 when they see the purity and reverence of your lives.
1 Corinthians 14:34 women should remain silent in the churches. They are not allowed to speak, but must be in submission, as the Law says.
Ephesians 5:22 Wives, submit to your husbands as to the Lord.
Colossians 3:18 Wives, submit to your husbands, as is fitting in the Lord.
