I remember several years ago there was a man named Danny that came to church. Danny was from Czechoslovakia and spoke with quite a thick accent. It was absolutely lovely.
One Wednesday night, in his thick accent he said, “De Bi-ble says dat… it’s better to live alone in the corner of an attic than with a quarrelsome wife in a lovely home.” Prov 21:9

The Bible also says a quarrelsome wife is as annoying as constant dripping on a rainy day. Stopping her complaints is like trying to stop the wind or trying to hold something with greased hands. Prov 27:15

Now I do not know if he was speaking from personal experience or not but several years later he and his wife divorced and I heard that he left the country.

You know it’s not just women that this can be aimed towards; it is men.
Perhaps the husband gives his wife a reason to quarrel. If he won’t keep a steady job, if he won’t repair things around the house, or if he won’t take off and turn his dirty socks right-side out, then she may have a legitimate reason to quarrel.

Many husbands could be content with clean clothes, hot meals, and the remote control.
It’s going to take more than this to have a great marriage. She is your wife not your slave.

Most women want assurance and security in financial stability, love, help raising the children, and some help in keeping the home clean and livable.

It is the responsibility of the husband to bring out the best in his wife – and the wife to bring out the best in her husband.
When both give their lives and family to the Lord then He will bring out the best of Himself through them.
NOW THAT’S A MARRIAGE!

So husbands, let your wife be a fountain of blessing for you. Rejoice in the wife of your youth. Prov 5:18
The man who finds a wife finds a treasure, and he receives favor from the Lord. Prov 18:22
