Week 7: Sex Drive Transformation (Embrace)

If you are just joining the Sex Drive Transformation Challenge, WELCOME and please see the INTRODUCTION HERE.

(Husbands, if you are reading, you are invited to pray these scriptures and thoughts over your wives.)

As low-libido wives, our physical nature can fool us.  Sexual intimacy in marriage is extremely important.  But, if we are to rely on our ‘instincts’ it may be to the detriment of our relationship with our husbands.

God uses our weakness to show His strength.  Our husbands need of greater sexual fulfillment, is actually to our benefit, physically, emotionally and spiritually. 

Are you grateful for the strengths your husband brings to your marriage?  Are you grateful for YOUR strengths?  Because, this is a reciprocal process.  Our strengths enhance our husbands’ weaknesses.  And, actually, maybe we should be grateful for our weaknesses, too.  Isn’t it His miracle when He bolsters our weaknesses?  For, we can do all things through Christ who strengthens us. 

Today I want to focus on embracing gratitude toward our sexually charged nature.  We KNOW that God will answer prayers that are in alignment with his will.  A marriage filled with sexually intimacy was designed by God.  We KNOW that our prayers for sexual desire will be answered positively.  Now, what we have to be aware of is that these answers may come in forms we don’t anticipate.  Isn’t our wonderful Lord, the Lord of humor and surprise?  Be open to what He may reveal.

WEEK 7

“This is the confidence we have in approaching God:  that if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us.  And if we know that He hears us, whatever we ask, we know that we have what we asked of Him,” 1 John 5:14-15.

I embrace my sexually charged nature.  I embrace gratitude that God is answering my prayer regarding sexually desiring my husband.  I embrace the emotional, physical and spiritual pleasure sexual intimacy brings to my marriage.  I embrace that sexual intimacy with my husband is God-ordained.
