Marriage Moment: Enraptured Love

0 Shares

As we get older our bodies begin to change. The shapeliness of youth becomes the settledness of middle age. It seems to happen overnight. You wake up one morning, look in the mirror and suddenly what once was firm and strong has become soft, what once was soft and curvaceous is now flabby. What’s a man to do with a wife who no longer looks like the bride he married? Love her.

Proverbs 5:18-20
18
Let your fountain be blessed,
And rejoice with the wife of your youth.
¹⁹As a loving deer and a graceful doe,
Let her breasts satisfy you at all times;
And always be enraptured with her love.
²⁰For why should you, my son, be enraptured by an immoral woman,
And be embraced in the arms of a seductress?”

Ladies, we so worry about what our husbands will think. We worry that we aren’t good enough. We worry that he will be turned off by the droop and flab. BUT if he is a man who loves and serves God, he will long to be enraptured by your love. He will be satisfied by you at all times and he will rejoice in the wife that God gave him in his youth.

Let’s get past the need for outward approval and realize that it is the inward heart that God sees. If our Christian husbands are obedient to God, he will love you regardless of your outward appearance. He will love your appearance and your heart.
