12 Days To A Love That Lasts

DAY 3 OF 12

Sex 

Finally! It took three days, but now we're getting to the good stuff. We're talking about sex.
 

Sex is a wonderful, God-created act that has almost as many facets as it does ways to engage in it. The problem is that our warped cultural perception often infiltrates even our Godly thinking about sex. And that's when we start to get away from a love that lasts.
 

If you want to build a love that lasts, start with this foundational thinking about sex: God created it to build intimacy between you, and the way that intimacy gets built is through service.
 

Sex isn't about you. It's about them.
 

Sex isn't self-serving – it's spouse-serving and couple-serving. You aren't lounging in the marital bed to make yourself feel good – you're there to generate intimacy and mutuality between the two of you.   
 

So, yes, if you want to build a love that lasts, keep having sex! But remember that sex is a beautiful, creative act that takes on so much more   meaning – and pleasure – when you serve one another.
