Sex: How Often預覽
Normal Changes
Devotional Content:
In today’s video, Dr. Kim asks Doug and Mel this question: “Has your ‘normal’ changed over time during your marriage?”
As Paul defines love for us in the book of 1 Corinthians, there are great applications to our sexual relationship in marriage. Being patient with each other as you learn about each other sexually is essential. We need to throw out the world’s view of sex and together, build our sex life as God designed it.
Having great sex in marriage does not mean that we insist on sex our way. We are not to be selfish but rather mindful of each other and the needs of both. Sex in a Christian marriage involves the physical, the mental, the emotional, and the spiritual. It is becoming “one flesh” in all of these.
The spiritual connection is a big part of the gift of sex as God designed it for marriage. Sure, the physical act is awesome and we long for all that it brings to us but as we grow together with God, the spiritual connection can truly change the way we look at and experience sex with our spouse. It truly can become a “mingling of souls.”
For most of us, our “normal” will certainly change over the course of our marriage but the changes can be good and can actually enhance and improve our sexual experience together.
Today’s Challenge:
Discuss how the words of 1 Corinthians 13 can be applied to your sexual relationship in marriage.
Going Deeper:
Dr. Kim talks about the “mingling of souls” that can happen in the sexual relationship between a husband and a wife. Pray together that God will build that into your marriage.
