Notes from a sermon I listened to a while ago.
The Love we are supposed to have to our wife is not some overflowing emotion, but the Love Christ has for us. We are to sanctify her!
Turn to the Lord to receive motivation to love her, not to her.
We are to view her as a child of the king, who’s been entrusted to us, and our desire is that our love, that overflows for her, would be a sanctifying influence in her life for the love of Christ who loved us.
We do not only love her that way because she is a part of christ’s body, but she also is a part of OUR body.
The sexual union between a man and his wife is a living, breathing, all-inspiring expression of the ecstasy of the union the church awaits. We do not think highly enough about sex. We don’t respect, honor it enough.
so, don’t we dare make less of it!
