bibleSong Of Solomon 7:1-9
How beautiful your sandaled feet, O prince's daughter! Your graceful legs are like jewels, the work of a craftsman's hands. Your navel is a rounded goblet that never lacks blended wine. Your waist is a mound of wheat encircled by lilies. Your breasts are like two fawns, twins of a gazelle. Your neck is like an ivory tower. Your eyes are the pools of Heshbon by the gate of Bath Rabbim. Your nose is like the tower of Lebanon looking toward Damascus. Your head crowns you like Mount Carmel. Your hair is like royal tapestry; the king is held captive by its tresses. How beautiful you are and how pleasing, O love, with your delights! Your stature is like that of the palm, and your breasts like clusters of fruit. I said, "I will climb the palm tree; I will take hold of its fruit." May your breasts be like the clusters of the vine, the fragrance of your breath like apples,and your mouth like the best wine.

I know parts of this passage are a little dated but... I love the way it conveys a very sexual message with innocence and purity. What a great example of how sex should be.
How's your sex life, by the way? Statistically, many of you are playing with pornography and masturbation. Many others have forgotten what it's like to talk to your wife like the lover in this passage. I know... It's easy to do. We're given so many opportunities to take the easy way. So many chances to replace the pure and beautiful with a pale shadow that represents only the smallest bit of the physical act.
Anyway... It's not my intent to beat anybody up. I just want to remind you what it was like. What it can be like. Make it a point today to win your wife. Buy her flowers. Kiss her passionately in the kitchen. Hug her from behind. Kiss her on the neck. Wrap your arms around her and make her feel loved and desired and wanted. Win her. After the kids are asleep... Give her a full body massage. Rub her feet. Rub her back, neck, hands, arms... The whole deal. Be generous. Be attentive. Be loving. Be gentle. Don't talk dirty. Don't be crude. Don't pervert it in any way. Just drink in her beauty. Love her.
I'm going to bed. = )
