Rejoice in your wife!

Good morning everyone! This is the National Day of Prayer! Take time out, ask God for forgiveness for yourself, then pray for others, community, state, nation and world. God is good all the time, all the time God is good!

Proverbs 5:18-20 KJV "Let thy fountain be blessed: and rejoice with the wife of thy youth. Let her be as the loving hind and pleasant roe; let her breasts satisfy thee at all times; and be thou ravished always with her love. And why wilt thou, my son, be ravished with a strange woman, and embrace the bosom of a stranger?
The ecstatic joy of the lover is summed up in the word ravished. The hind and roe have always been chosen by the Oriental poets as figures of human beauty because of their grace, speed, and lustrous eyes. Wisdom does not regret the sexual pleasures that a man can find with the wife of his youth and marvels that in the face of such pleasure any would be so foolish as to embrace the fickle adulteress.

God never intended marriage to become boring, lifeless, and dull. Sex is a gift God gives to married people for their mutual enjoyment. Real happiness comes when we decide to find pleasure in the spouse God has given us and to commit ourselves to meeting his or her needs. The real danger is in doubting that God knows and cares for us. We then may resent his timing and carelessly pursue sexual pleasure without his blessing.

Take time, tell your spouse how much you do indeed appreciate him or her. Thank you for reading. Love you all

In Christ's Love and Grace

Johnny
