A continual dripping on a rainy day and a quarrelsome wife are alike; to restrain her is to restrain the wind or to grasp oil in one's right hand.
Proverbs 27:15-16 ESV
It's better not to put yourself into a position in which you need to restrain the wind or hold oil in your hand, but if you must, it will require tools and ingenuity. The same is true for a quarrelsome wife. You will need to find loving ways to redirect and contain her quarrelsome nature. If you rely on physical discipline, you are unlikely to be able to trust her. This principle is true in any relationship with a difficult person.
According to David, mankind is not designed to live in heaven. Psalm 115:16, “The highest heavens belong to the LORD, but the earth He has given to mankind.” Isaiah 45:12 “It is I who made the earth and created man upon it.” This verse also indicates that mankind was designed to remain on the earth. This is also indicative for the creation of a new heaven and new earth, uncorrupted and perfect where the New Jerusalem will be placed onto the earth by the Creator Himself.
I have been going through Hebrews on Wednesdays, so today's post on judgment and marriage is just the next verse. However, this is a heavy topic. I am praying it draws you closer to Him! https://archive.aweber.com/awlist6425868/K9j3Y

Shalom, Heidi!
I went through Torah and found as many guidelines as I could. Some of them reminded me of other guidelines elsewhere in Scripture. I didnt write the corresponding verse numbers, but i did try to write a laymans rule for each statute. One that I had never noticed before, is that we are not to sell food to the poor for a profit. This strikes me, as I am trying to start a grocery and a free store/pantry in our little town. I finally have all the numbers calculated, and just need to plug them into the business plan. Tomorrow I have an online meeting with vocational rehabilitation to get things going. My biggest fear is that I wont get the real estste I have selected for this endeavor. Many people have been writing down the realtors number!
