See, I want my son to grow up knowing and understanding that loving on his wife is a GOOD thing. Of course, we will save our more intimate endeavors for the bedroom...we aren't sick-o's! However, I am commited to showing my children that love and affection is how God wants us to behave in a marriage. I want my son(s) to cherish their wives and have eyes only for them, and to be respected by their wives. I want my daughter(s) to feel loved and adored by their husbands, and to be the helper to their husbands that God has created them to be.
I began a few days ago studying a Proverb a day for the month of Decemeber, in addition to my weekly Bible Study and the Advent readings through GMG (get the Advent Reading Plan I use HERE). During my quiet time with the Lord this morning, I studied and mediated on Proverbs 5. In this, God discusses His laws regarding sex in marriage and the peril of adultery. You see, God likes sex. He WANTS us to have sex, and lots of it too! In fact, God wants sex to be erotic and exciting! Good news here, right?! I mean, God said so...so I guess we better do what he says! Hehe. The thing is, God wants these things for a MARRIED couple, and that married couple only.
Uh-Oh. I am the first to say, I messed this up already. I would love to be able to tell you, and more importantly, my children, that mommy and daddy waited for marriage like God wants, but it's not true. Good news, though, God is a forgiving Father, and we can now tell our children that even though we made a mistake, we wish we would have followed God's commands and that they have the opportunity to follow God's Word!
Anyway, back to the fun stuff; sex! So God has given us all the blessing to have fun, exciting, kinky sex, with our husbands. NO. ONE. ELSE. In Bible times, each family had a well which the household would get their drinking water from. This was not a 'shared' thing, it belonged to the family only. God explains keeping sex inside the marriage this way:
"Drink from the water of your own cistern, and running water from your own well. Should your fountains be dispersed abroad, streams of water in the streets? Let them be only your own, and not for strangers with you." ~Proverbs 5:15-18
Don't you love when the Lord explains what He means in 'plain Jane' terms?? Thank you, Lord, for making this simple enough for even little ol' me to understand.
I am so thankful to have a God who is:
A. Forgiving
B. Wants my husband and I to desire each other
I want you to know that if you have 'messed up' it is not too late to make things right, whether you made a mistake (or many, like me) prior to your marriage, or even in your marriage. God wants you to be with Him. He is not going to cast your out. He knows we will sin and make mistakes. Calling on Him is the only way to be sure you can keep your path straight!
Alright you love birds. Go 'get a room', get creative, and love on your hubby!
Blessings,
Kaila
