Sexuality

Yes, the title of this is sexuality. Don't be shocked!

Shout for joy to the Lord, all the earth. Worship the Lord with gladness; come before him with joyful songs. Know that the Lord is God. It is he who made us, and we are his people; the sheep of his pasture.
Psalm 100: 1-3

This was a very interesting study.

Women often receive mixed messages concerning their sexuality from their families, the Church and the culture in which they live. Many Christian women have difficulty even talking about the subject of sexuality.

There is a difference between a healthy sexual attitude based on God's original design and a sexual attitude based on social and cultural values. A woman- made in the image of God- is both physical and spiritual. The physical is really a manifestation of what is in the heart and soul of a woman.

God designed physical intimacy to be more than a sexual act. The greatest act of love is to lay down one's life for another. True love involves desiring to come alongside a man to help him realize his full potential in every area of life. This is true intimacy.

Intimacy in marriage involves sacrifice, but when two people are committed to one another, the rewards far outweigh the complexities.

Part of the lesson was to make a list of things we admire & respect about our husbands.
Of course it is easy to pick out the things we don't like!

I enjoyed doing this: good intentions, supportive of our family, forgiveness of my flaws, example for our family, vital in our lives
I love my husband very much and am so thankful we have overcome so many trials!
I look forward to the years to come!
