(Husbands, if you are reading, you are invited to pray these scriptures and thoughts over your wives.)
I’ve been grocery shopping for decades now. It’s taken me decades to connect the dots.
While standing in line to check-out, here are some magazine cover titles I saw:
Nasty Little Secrets He’ll Love in Bed
Dirty Filthy Paradise?
Sinful…..
Animalistic……
Raunchy Style
The media has used words to describe physical intimacy that do not adequately describe the beauty of God’s design. Actually, they describe the opposite.
I decided NO. I would not allow my mind to use the media words to describe my love making anymore. It may be vanilla sex, but it isn’t nasty. We may need a shower, but our rendezvous’ are never filthy. It may be wildly enthusiastic, but it is never animalistic. Our lovemaking is God ordained, never sinful.
(I wouldn’t be surprised if some marketing genius tried to give the word ‘fornicate’ a trendy spin. Fornicate – the new buzz word. Look how far the other ‘f’ word has come, and I’m not saying that is a good thing.)
I won’t let the media infiltrate my mind any longer. Words are powerful. God spoke the world into existence.
At the risk of damaging my credibility as one who supports only sound science, a Russian study has come to my attention. I was not able to find it as a published journal article. It states that wave frequency (sound) and language may be able to affect the structure of certain DNA.
The thoughts and beliefs we carry produce an energy that can affect our physical body and our mental state as shown in the Dec. 2012 Aravena study in France. This is the study that we’ve been using as the 52 week transformation basis.
Low libido ladies take back the right to frame sexual intimacy in the best mental light possible.
Let’s come up with affirming F words that describe the many flavors of lovemaking and fill our minds to the fullest.
Frisky Finest Flowing Favored
Feisty Freeing Fabulous Frivolity
Fun Frolicsome Fitting Frank
Flirtatious Festive Fearless Forgiving
Fundamental Fiery Familiar Fortunate
Key 19:
“A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold is a setting of silver,” Proverbs 25:11
“and every high-minded thing that is raised up against the knowledge of God, taking every thought captive to obey Christ,” 2 Corinthians 10:5
Positive Thought
Sexual energy flows through my veins. I flex my desire to make love with my husband, fully accepting it is God-ordained. I am fearless and feel no shame. I frolic with sexual desire for the union that cements the bond with my husband.
Great post! You’re so right. The media sends these terrible messages that sex has to be (well, all of the above things you listed and more). Sex is never about animalistic desires. We aren’t animals. We are made in the image of a beautiful, holy, perfect God. Sex is about glorifying God with our bodies, giving our spouse pleasure, and growing deeper in physical/emotional/spiritual intimacy.
We love the words “frisky” and “fiery,” (especially since I’m a redhead). I love how you wrote, “I am fearless and feel no shame.” Definitely repeat that to myself often!
I’d add –
– faithful – we are faithful to each other and each other alone, and we faithfully commit to having sex regularly.
– familiar – we become intimately familiar with each other’s bodies, minds, hearts, and souls.
– fantastic – the experience is fantastic!
– fascinating – I find the way God designed my husband and I to fit perfectly fascinating, designed for ultimate pleasure and enjoyment.
– feminine – I feel so feminine when my husband takes the time to compliment my body, call me beautiful, and takes the time to “romance” me well during foreplay.
– freeing – because we are married we have no restrictions or worries that unmarried couples have; we are totally and completely free to enjoy one another
I love your additional F Words. 🙂 Thank you, H!
