Widows, housework, humor and keeping the devil at bay

So funny thing I ran across while reading my Bible yesterday. I just thought I would share it for fun. Normally the Bible does not make me laugh out loud but this one sure did. I was reading in 1 Timothy 5:11- 15. It is talking about how a Church should be organized and in chapter 5 it talks about widows and what the church should do for them and what some of the attributes of a widow is and how to honor them. It says that if a widow was essentially a "good" widow then put her on "the list" (what list, I am not sure) but in verse 11 it says;

But refuse to put younger widows on the list, for when they feel sensual desires in disregard to Christ, they want to get married, thus incurring condemnation, because they have set aside their previous pledge. At the same time they learn to be idle, as they go from house to house; and not merely idle, but also gossips and busybodies, talking about things not proper to mention. Therefore, I want younger widows to get married bear children, keep house, and give the enemy no occasion for reproach; for some have already turned aside to follow satan.

So there you go folks. If anyone thought that being a married stay at home mom was easy here is our biblical proof that being a SAHM keeps us SO busy that it keeps the devil at bay. Ha! So, the combination of my dear husband, lovely children and never ending housework may be an essential key to my salvation. I love it! Never say that humor doesn't exist in the Bible.
