Well, a “friend of mine” and his wife were being counseled by the church pastor. They had not had sex for well over a year because she “didn’t feel he loved her” and he was honoring her wishes while they went to counseling. She was accusing him of being sexually abusive.

The pastor looked at her and gently said, “withholding of sex is a form of sexual abuse”. She was furious and file for divorce shortly thereafter.

Meanwhile, my Christian “friend” was distraught for many reasons but an elder pointed out 1 Cor 7:15. My “friend” found a new wife and his been living in marital bliss for over ten years now!

My “friend” used to watch romantic movies with a firm conviction they were like science fiction - It didn’t really happen that way but it was nice to imagine. He now enjoys those movies because he knows it is REAL! You just have to find the right ADULT with whom to spend the rest of your life and be your best friend. She becomes sister, daughter, mother, friend, lover, wife - all in one person. It is actually quite remarkable. You get a feel for just how much wisdom God must have to create something so incredibly beautiful and fulfilling.

The real exciting part is that this marriage relationship is a “type” of our relationship with Him. We are the Bride!
