Conclusion Proverbs 15:17 "Better is a dinner of herbs where love is, than a stalled ox and hatred therewith"

This lesson is all about priorities. There are some things that are just plain more important than others. This scripture teaches us that no matter what else is happening, we should have a spirit of love, acceptance, and peace in our homes. We can reword the scripture a thousand different ways, and it still means the same thing. "Better a home with kind words, than a home with no clothes on the floor." There are lots of things that are JUST NOT WORTH FIGHTING ABOUT! The spirit of contention is the "spirit of the devil". The priority for us should be the Spirit of the Lord. That doesn't mean that we can't talk about clothes on the floor, dishes in the sink, raising children, money. It just means that we have to do it in a way that allows His Spirit to be with us. And as I always say......"Nice Face, Nice Words, Nice Voice".
