“Every good relationship, especially marriage, is based on respect. If it’s not based on respect, nothing that appears to be good will last very long.” – Amy Grant.

It doesn’t matter what she looks like, her face, hair, clothes, and other physical attributes don’t matter – its what you see in her eyes that bring her beauty to you – this is where she shines – here is her real worth, here is her deep inner sensitive love. God made her like this. Genesis Chapter 2, verse 18:

Missing Love!
°
Hugs are nice, and arriving home and there is someone to greet you at the door with a smile, a kiss, a hug, or even a, “Hurry up, we are late!” are things that are missed and we can wish for.
°
Someone to talk to late at night, to care for, to go shopping with, to tell silly stories to, and to hug while in tears because today was just a bit too much.
Someone to keep you warm on chilly nights, to laugh with, to cry with, to share those jokes that are not really funny with, and those tender moments at a serious meeting, hospital, doctors where our fingers touch just to let the other know that someone is there for the other no matter what they must go through.
What you go through, I go through. Together, we are one.
°
Love is Spirit.
Love is the glue that holds all things together.
Love is what holds the hearts of kindred spirits in harmony so that they both hear an invisible soundless beautiful music that no one else can hear.
°
Going through life lonely is hard, sad, sometimes depressing, so it is so nice to have someone there all the time, to care, share and face a fear with you, too hold us up, just to be there.
°
Love is what life is all about.
The wise know the value of love, the wise reach for love, the wise never let true spiritual love from the heart slip away.

Lies and deceptions that the enemy uses to destroy marriages:
1. I just don’t love him/her anymore.
*Love is not just a feeling- It’s a choice. You can create and get feelings back.
2. She/he just doesn’t meet my needs and never will.
*Love is laying one’s self down for another.
3. We fight so much. It would be better for the children.
*Divorce causes even more brokenness especially in children and teens. Get counseling and take classes to change the unhealthy behavior.
4. I’m in love with someone else.
*Leaving him/her for someone else is adultery. It’s wrong and God can’t bless an ungodly relationship.
5. I’ve tried fixing our marriage and it just doesn’t work.
*You can do all things thru Christ who gives you strength. Stop trying to do it by yourself.
6. It’s been so long since we have been happily married. It’s never going to get better.
*All marriages go thru difficult seasons. You need to choose to honor your vows…”For Better or worse…”
7. I’m not sexually attracted to him/her anymore.
*Get emotionally connected to your spouse again and the sensual feelings will return.
8. We both have changed. We are two different people. It can’t work.
*Learn to appreciate and value your differences. Find a common ground and start there. God created woman and man to be different to balance each other out.
9. There’s just been too much trust broken. I can’t trust him/her again.
*Trust can be repaired. It can be healed. it takes work. Remember your vows and fight for your marriage.
10. I’m so confused. I don’t know what’s God will or not concerning our marriage. *Remember confusion is not from God. The enemy is a spirit of confusion. Renew your mind with reading the word of God. If you lack wisdom ask God for it and He will give it to you. His word promises.

“All married couples should learn the art of battle as they should learn the art of making love. Good battle is objective and honest–never vicious or cruel. Good battle is healthy and constructive, and brings to a marriage the principle of equal partnership.” – Ann Landers.

Some thoughts I have on love:
“True love is two people willing to work around each others problems until each ones “ups and downs” become their interesting characters.”
Having love, being love makes us complete to fulfill our destiny together. Two are better than one. Two makes life sharing so much more important and fun. Sharing life with someone else becomes a spiritual journey surrounded by spiritual comfort and serenity.
Simply walking the streets arms linked in belonging, or hands held in “this is so a awesome, I am with you” and it’s all about belonging to someone else and feeling good and relaxed just being in their space. It is comforting being with that person.
Love is not about an intense fling for an afternoon, love is about a long-lasting joy with someone who is an awesome friend, a great partner, a companion to share with, and be with in all totallness.
Love can be worn in ones heart day and night whether they be together or apart, and yet still have that comforting feeling of being content, and that no matter what happens they can deal with it together.
Simple touches, secret glances, special smiles, knowing looks and living as if every moment together is some special secret life you both live.
Being in love is, we hurt together, we go down together, we rise triumphantly together, we are one together. We share, because we care. Being in love is “being real, strong and courageous together” it is holding each other up when one is feeling so down.
Spiritually love fills two souls with a meaning to live, feeling wanted, needing someone, having someone need you. This is what makes life complete. It is what we live for. The human need to feel love cures many illnesses and brings great comfort to the soul when true love is found.

The nicest words you could hear other than “I love you!” are probably “Welcome home, please stay!”

A woman can be so amazenly attractive on the outside and to me she is stunning, but if she starts using foul language, talking people down, gossiping, demanding, pushing, man I want out that door as soon as I can.
Narcissist women can look good, act nice in public, but at home selfish, arrogant, putting herself before the children and before everyone.
*
But a good woman. She is fair, fun, tries, isn’t perfect but that’s cool (because I ain’t perfect either), and puts an equal effort into the relationship, home, etc, she is soooo good to me to be my woman, and I return the loving with respect for her awesomeness.
Nothing kills a sweet relationship like a woman who tries to be a man, who is in your face all the time, is demanding, insecure and a bully. Any man’s gonna leave that, it is common sense.

No male or female needs to be the boss. It is all about being in each others space, enjoying the company, loving each other all day long. Good loving is sharing the same ideas, doing things with each other because that is where each other wants to be. Good loving is standing up for each other. Hugs, simple yet meaningful kisses, a touch of the hand, catching the others eye to share a secret joke, a wink that promises better things to come, a massage, a gentle touch that only two can understand, listening, holding, hugging and at the end of the day, alone time together.
Good loving is spiritual and an all day experience that cannot be explained, just felt, experienced and enjoyed.
°
When you find the right one, learn from the experience, don’t let it go.
