by Lori Alexander from The Transformed Wife β Her Husband is Known at the Gates
Editorβs note: Lather, rinse, repeat. Every day lately when Lori is not quoting someone else sheβs repeating her most boring ideas. Dirty house/no hot food equals bad marriage in her mind. It just does not work like that in reality, or even the scriptures.
As we know from Godβs Word, Godβs instructions in marriage are for the husband to be the provider and protector of the family and the wife is to be his help meet and keeper at home. This is the way God created marriage to be and is His perfect will for us.
Her husbandβs career is as a leader and/or judge in the land. He is able to do his job well because he has no concerns or anxieties coming from his marriage or home life. He chose a godly, submissive help meet who takes pleasure in working hard in the home and with her children. He trusts her to take care of all her work in the home so he can take care of providing for his family. They each know their role and work at it to the best of their ability.
We know couples where the wives are slothful in the home. They donβt care for their home, nor do they discipline and train their children well. Their husbands donβt come home to a delicious smelling dinner, nor do they come home to a clean home or well-trained children. In the morning before work, their work clothes sit wet in the washing machine. Their wives bring them dishonor and shame. Let this never be said of any of you.
QUOTING QUIVERFULL is a regular feature of NLQ β we present the actual words of noted Quiverfull leaders, cultural enforcers and those that seek to keep women submitted to men and ask our readers: What do you think? Agree? Disagree? This is the place to state your opinion. Please, letβs keep it respectful β but at the same time, we encourage readers to examine the ideas of Quiverfull and Spiritual Abuse honestly and thoughtfully.
