Episode 48-Proverbs: Which Path Have You Chosen?
A Beautiful Adventure Marriage
In the Bible we find two paths, and everyone is on one or the other. The Path of Righteousness involves obedience and allegiance to God, with actions that show this loyalty. This path leads to life and blessings. The Path of Wickedness involves a life of sin, self-indulgence, and allegiance to the prince of the world, Satan. This path leads to destruction and curses.

info_outlineSex Life Killers Part 2
Last week we gave you three things that could be damaging or even killing your sex life. Your sex life is such an important part of your marriage and should be thriving not dying.
On our last episode we talked about...
-
Distractions
-
Constantly shutting down your spouse
-
Critical Words
Let's look at a few more things that could be hindering your sex life.
Comparison
Comparison is a relationship killer in general. It has the ability to take a person who has so much and make them believe they have nothing. Comparison always leaves you feeling less-than. Comparison can kill intimacy on multiple levels.
Pushing through this can be hard, but we were never meant to be like other people. Your spouse didn’t choose someone else. They chose and love you. Don’t let comparison steal your intimacy.
Body Image
Comparison is a great segue to our next point. A lot of people simply let themselves go and do not take care of their bodies after marriage. One major sex life killer can be refusing to take care of our bodies after we get married. The pressure to “win” a spouse is off, so we get lazy and sloppy.
NOW LISTEN CAREFULLY – We are not saying you have to be bone skinny or have six-pack abs for the rest of your life to be happily married. That is impossible, BUT you can take care of yourself. You can be healthy.
Being Too Busy
If I had to guess, you probably have a to-do list that is a mile long. This world glorifies busyness. If you are overwhelmed, unrested, and unhealthy, clearly you are a go-getter who will be happy and successful someday.
If you are too busy to have sex, you are too busy. Prioritize your marriage and your spouse. Choose them over a to-do list. The list will be there tomorrow, and after good sex, you may be more energized to get it accomplished.
Having A Poor Routine
Another sex life killer is falling into a poor routine. Always doing the same thing is boring. Spice things up. Do it in a different place, at a different time of day. If you have to schedule sex to make sure it is a priority, that is fine but be creative about everything else. It doesn’t always have to be the same old sex. Sex can be scheduled, intentional, and yet exciting. It just takes a little planning and prep.
