Courage to have Passion

This post is from the ebook

“I believe you possess enormous courage,” an acquaintance, nearly a stranger, told me this the other day.  It made me feel so comforted.  Renewed vigor swept over me.

It felt so good to have someone in my corner.  I want to be in your corner.

Dear gorgeous lady, I know that you can create a beautiful life of love and lovemaking with your husband.  The courage and conviction to do this is within you.

Libido is so much more than just a physical craving for sexual intimacy.  Libido is a zest for living life; a zest for the daily grind and a zest for new experience.  For me to have a successful life of sexual intimacy, I need the ambience of zest within the other areas of my life.

Libido is an all encompassing passion for life.  It’s being grateful for the blessings we have and grateful for the experiences that challenge us and help us blossom into the kind of person that models Christ.

Libido is the fruit of the positive energy you pump into your life.  Negatives are intentionally pumped out, for the positive to flourish.

My ‘life-libido’ is like my iris bed.  The entire plant has to be healthy to produce blossoms.  The green foliage comes up every year, but that’s not always an indication that blooms will appear.  To produce the lovely blossoms, I have to weed and fertilize.

The weeds are persistent and profuse.  Eradicating weeds takes constant attention.  It even takes self-sacrifice.  I hate enduring the sweltering, buggy days of August to work in the yard.  Fertilization doesn’t happen quite as often, but it is necessary to produce the blooms I adore.

Sexual intimacy is the blossom.  The blossom is beautiful all by itself.  However, the blossom in the midst of foliage enhances the entire flower bed of life.  Lovemaking is only a small fraction of the total care of your marriage, but its presence helps a marriage thrive not just exist.

I believe in your courage to eradicate the weeds of fear, increase zest for the green foliage of daily life, and bloom with sexual intimacy.   I am praying over you, my friend.  Find your libido of life.

WEEK 20

“David also said to Solomon his son, ‘Be strong and courageous, and do the work.  Do not be afraid or discouraged, for the LORD God, my God, is with you.  He will not fail you or forsake you until all the work for the service of the temple of the Lord is finished.’,” I Chronicles 28:20.

 Positive Thought (action verb: Free)

I free my courage from deep in my heart.  I am free and strong to weed the negatives out of my life.  I free my sexual energy.  I free the knowledge that sexual intimacy is God-ordained.
