Re: Seven Days of Sex... Woo Hoo!! :)
Some conclusions after almost 50 yrs of a fruitful, loving marriage:
Newlyweds would possibly be the ones most interested in nightly
love-making! (Notice I said LOVEMAKING! There is a difference in
Love and sex.) Most can have sex, but not everyone can make love.)
For couples that have been married many years, IF you have to
have Sex every night, something is missing. Loves teaches! Love is
kind and tender and thinks of the other. One for the other and each for
the Lord. And IF you think the Lord has no place in your Lovemaking, you
had better think again, for God IS Love! Without God its just sex!
If done right the first night, you won't have to do it over every night.
Skip a day or so, if for no other reason, to see or know IF you can.
Things repeated too often may become commonplace and lose their value.
It may become a "have to" occasion. Just repeating something isn't necess-
arily getting the work done.
There used to be a saying, "Absence makes the heart grow fonder". Love
draws us to each other (not another). Love looks no further than home,
for where our "treasure" is, there will be our heart also! It also takes time
and honesty and working together to learn about each other. That's some
of the wonder of it all!
Someone who would settle for another than their spouse, anytime or any
place,
isn't in love. It is simply our flesh uncontrolled, by the Spirit of God.
After almost 50 yrs. my husband is the only man I want/desire when it comes to
the intimate need between a man and a woman. It's because of the LOVE of GOD
shed abroad in our hearts, by the Holy Ghost. We are COMPLETE IN HIM! It's not
all about me, or we. IT's about HE, which is the head of ALL principalities and power.
HE in we and each of us in HIM, that makes the difference.
Needs to be a lot less of me, and we, and a WHOLE lot MORE of HE or HIM!
Whether it is understood what I am saying depends on what your relationship is
with HIM, and our level of maturity! That relates to anything.
No, I am not just an old fuddy-duddy that is now too old to enjoy LOVE-making!
I'm old/wise enough to dislike "sex". There really is a BIG difference! I believe in
settling for the best! Again, if it's LOVE, and the LOVE-making is motivated by True
Love, it will last a while, surely a week. What do we expect out of those who have
to serve in the military or work out of town. If we think we can't go a day without
sex, and act upon that type of thinking, it's not LOVE, it's ME, ME ME! That type of
thinking could wind up in a divorce.
Our late father was in the U.S. Army and served almost two years overseas, which
included front line service. He had a young wife and four little children at home. After
Dad started the work of God in our city, he would tell of how God had kept him from
harm, sin and evil. He didn't tell everything to the church but to some of his family
members of the more personal times. How God KEPT him. I am so glad for these things
he related so that I could understand as a young married that you could be KEPT by
a personal God who could and would KEEP you by HIS POWER. But we have to "desire
to be KEPT!
Dad told of a young Japanese woman who came and sat across from him on a train
in Japan. She placed her feet on his lap. He immediately lifted her feet and let them
drop (not too gently) to the floor and said, "Wife only". He was 26 or 27 yrs old, had
experienced married life). It CAN be done if COMMITTED to a GOD who sees, hears
and understands His Creation.
I also know of a close family member whose home was broken apart by the betrayal
of marital committment. This person related how God KEPT them for many yrs. before
they married again.
Both this person and my Dad related how God had simply, "put the desire for that part
of life, ON HOLD" until they were again in a place for "happy married life to continue".
But again, "WE must desire to be KEPT".
As long as the enemy of our SOUL can convince us that we cannot go a day without
SEX, he's got us "whopped".
Is it LOVE or is it EGO. LOVE SATISFIES! Ego is kin to lust, it is never satis-
fied. Love will last as long as you do. Lust of the flesh (me, me, me) is NEVER satisfied.
Lust conceived bringeth for death.(spiritual, and can bring natural death).
Blessings,
