A typical scenario. Wifey-appliance works full-time, then comes home to work the uncompensated 2nd shift; where she is lied to, cheated upon, and cussed at - for no reason, really. That all said, the woman doing the podcast said, that sticking it out for the children, may be an example to those kids - that it's okay to treat mothers (or other family members) like garbage.
Does not the Bible say something about casting pearls before swine? Is it really a smart move to stick around, to get trampled - again? Bible also says, there are people who lose sleep, when they are unable to make one, or more, person's life miserable.
Why don't preachers expound on this? It's not like Scripture is silent. (Just keep sending in your $$$; there's a "missions" trip coming up - somewhere nice ... where you'll never get to vi$it.)
"Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you." Matthew 7:6
"For they sleep not, except they have done mischief; and their sleep is taken away, unless they cause some to fall." Proverbs 4:16
"Every day they wrest my words: all their thoughts are against me for evil." Psalm 57:5
"Make no friendship with an angry man; and with a furious man, thou shalt not go; Lest thou learn his ways, and get a snare to thy soul." Proverbs 22:24-25.
