The Adorned Wife

To have a great marriage, you must remain sexually active with your Spouse! Do you know that many marital problems can be related to not having your needs met sexually? Most couples face the frustration of having one spouse with a consistently stronger sex drive than the other . The Bible tells us how we can manage our sex lives in 1 Corinthians 7:3-5 The husband should give to his wife her conjugal rights, and likewise the wife to her husband. For the wife does not have authority over her own body, but the husband does. Likewise, the husband does not have authority over his own body, but the wife does. Do not deprive one another, except perhaps by agreement for a limited time, that you may devote yourselves to prayer; but then come together again, so that Satan may not tempt you because of your lack of self-control. The verse states that couples should make love whenever the other Spouse wants to have sex. That means even if you are not in the mood at the ...

If you ask your Husband what he wants the most from you, chances are he will say, "Respect"! In Ephesians 5:33 apostle Paul encourages Husbands to love their wives and wives to respect their husbands. Paul knew that husbands need to be reminded that their wife should love and respect them. Could we as wives slip out of respecting our husbands and begin nagging and focusing on their weaknesses? Respect is what a husband wants; it's what a marriage needs. Wives who show their husband respect is allowing her Husband to become all that he ought to be. To understand how a wife is supposed to treat her husband, read Ephesians 5:33. "Let the wife see that she respects and reverences her husband [that she notices him, regards him, honors him, prefers him, venerates and esteems him; and that she defers him, praises him. loves and admires him exceedingly]." Look again at the verse, consider each phrase and relate it to how you treat your Husban...

Loving your Spouse Unconditionally Now that you have been married for a few months, have you been asking yourself what happened to my fairy tale?  Almost every woman wants the fairy tale to continue after the wedding, but reality sets in after financial problems arrive, small disagreements or everyday life happens.  When these things happen we begin noticing our Spouse's weaknesses. You start asking yourself, "Where is the person that I married and what happened to my perfect marriage"? After months of being married to your Spouse reality sets in, and you begin to notice some of your Spouse's weaknesses. It's easy to begin doubting your marriage and to start thinking that you could have made a mistake.  These kind of thoughts can be dangerous, because once you allow negative thinking to enter your mind, you are opening the door to temptation.  The enemy loves it when you start doubting your marriage, so do not allow it to happen. When you f...

I wrote something years ago. I continue to share it, because if I can save even one person than I will have accomplished something. I am fully aware that some of you have children on here and if this offends you, than I apologize. However, I would rather them have the knowledge, instead of become a victim of this substance. It all starts with an injury, a headache, a kidney stone, a surgery, or just wanting to try something new.  You may be afraid at first to try this unknown drug, because of the things that you’ve heard. You end up trying it anyway, because of the pain your feeling, the attempt of trying to be cool around your friends, or to escape reality. There is something that you do not know; once you shallow that pill, your life will NEVER be the same. The reason it changes your life, is most people enjoy the feeling that you receive off the pills. This will lead to you wanting more of what you just felt. Once the pills run out you will start to sneeze, your nose ...

Preventing the big "D" It is not uncommon to hear that a friend, family member, or a co-worker is going through a divorce. What most people do not realize is that divorce is an individual problem. It cannot be generalized. In some cases, divorce is not solution, because one or both spouses feel the marriage can be saved from divorce.  Divorce may be right for one person and wrong for another. Not all marriages can be saved from the big "D" word, but when a Husband and Wife agree to putting lots of time and effort into fixing the problems, divorce can be avoided. The key thing to remember is, divorce takes place first in the mind; the legal proceedings follow after.  If you and your Spouse have a negative attitude about your marriage and toward each other, then your marriage will not work. When you are silently resenting your Spouse and have hostility toward them, you are being unfaithful. You may be asking yourself, "How is having negative ...
