It's been a difficult journey of trust in my marriage for many reasons, but we have made great strides in this area. <br /><br />Thanks for being bold and speaking your heart. I appreciate your candor and God's truth via your pen.

The ONLY thing my mother ever said to me about sex (sex before marriage, but she NEVER talked about it within the context of marriage) was that I shouldn't do it because "nice girls don't do it."<br />And I have to believe that is part of the reason I have had the attitude that sex needs to be hidden, that there is an element of "badness" to it. <br />Sure, there is the junk that our culture throws at it, but I am coming to believe that growing up with the thought "nice girls don't do it" had a negative influence on my understanding of sex - and its GOODNESS in the context of marriage.<br />Thanks again for doing this series and spurring these thoughts in me. I am thinking about how I can be proactive in teaching my daughter that sex in marriage is a very good thing.Karen Hossinkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18049412644792482270noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-929543254325457611.post-48020023221914546772009-09-20T19:14:56.370-07:002009-09-20T19:14:56.370-07:00Please consider visiting Lisa Shaw's blog for ...Please consider visiting Lisa Shaw's blog for the Free To Be Me Bloggers Retreat giveaway.

The best love is a faithful love, the kind that cannot be seduced by power and wealth. It unashamedly praises monogamous love, the love of one woman and one man. God has created us to be united with one man. He hand crafted us this way-he offered us the ability to enjoy this pure relationship with our husband!<br /><br />How is do we get to that point of having a "pure relationship?" It's a never ending journey!--- Knowing our husband. Seeking, daily to know him better. Praying for this. Less of us & more of our husband. His needs before our own. Choosing to ask God every morning how we can be a blessing to him each day. To never stop from seeking to make the relationship stronger. <br /><br />In the same way the God desires us to be with one man, He desires that He be our One and Only God. <br /><br />Thank you Nichole! <br /><br />Lori - AZLorinoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-929543254325457611.post-51181480605638285422009-09-18T19:23:57.232-07:002009-09-18T19:23:57.232-07:00Thank you for hitting on a subject that can be dif...Thank you for hitting on a subject that can be difficult for so many. <br /><br />This has been very interesting and I do believe that you are helping many more than you even know.My ADHD Mehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12355981755069167730noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-929543254325457611.post-14275938665719014542009-09-18T19:00:27.588-07:002009-09-18T19:00:27.588-07:00Amen!
