For Wives Only....

This thread is EXCELENT!!! Thanks Shimmie for starting it and thanks to everyone for sharing your ideas. I am soooooo uncreative when it comes to this type of stuff and I can use all of the help I can get. I've only been married for 3.5 years, but the romance has faded already However, I'm determined to bring it back :wink2:

*****Sorry for the class interruption********

Shimmie,

Continue on.......

Too Funny!!!

There's more coming. I'm starting another one tonight. This is Father's Day weekend and I have some things to share that I hope all will be blessed with. And it's very important to share as well. It came to me in prayer this morning and I've been taking notes as they come into my heart.

Gee Whiz, I have so many things to share. Now I know one of the reasons why the Lord has opened my heart to this. These threads will go on for a long, long, time...

I'll be home earlier tonight. The Father's day post should appear not later than tomorrow morning. I want to get it done before the weekend comes. I have a prayer service tomorrow night, so tonight is for each of you.

I promise to consistant. You are some of the most precious ladies that I know and we're in this together...helping each other get through life. It's about more than Romance, it's about improving the quality of our lives and getting along better with one another. For this thread has surely brought on a beautiful new relationship...with wonderful each of you.

See you later tonight...new post for Father's Day...

Love and blessings,

""Shimmie..."

I'm completly at awe @ this thread !! It actually made my eyes well up with tears ! Shimmie, you are truly wonderful, and I can only say THANK YOU, THANK YOU for starting this.
I'm not married. I'm 24, and it's the first time I have a boyfriend. In the past I was too scared, childish, shy and insecure to give guys a chance, and I thought I would never ever get someone. But for some odd reason, the one I'm with now managed to break the wall I had built around myself. I still don't know how, and why it happened but it did ! I don't know if he's the one, but I want this relationship to blossom regardless. I want to wake up every morning and tell myself: How can I be a blessing in this boy's life today, and act upon it. I'm still clueless about many aspects of being a girlfriend and making a relationship work, so your tips and suggestions are excellent and come at the right time for me. I'm not yet ready to do all of them, but keep them coming !

I'm starting a new thread tonight. It will be titled: "Wives "Part 2" - Loving His Body" . It should be up by 10:00 p.m. Blessing, Angels... Love, Shimmie

 

[dontspeakdefeat]

I missed this, yesterday. Happy anniversary to you and your husband.

Celebrating the two of you has only just begun...the best is yet to come. And it's not just words. Because for as long as life is flowing in the heart of you and your husband, you will always have something to celebrate.

Hmmmm, 'Don't Speak Defeat'....your name speaks your destiny. For you are more than a 'conqueror' through Jesus Christ who loves you....

Amen...

"Love, Shimmie..."

Thank you! I am crying tears of joy.

 

[Shimmie]

Thank you! I am crying tears of joy.

Gee whiz...and now, me too... But Happy tears...Happy tears...

Ressurrecting Marriages...Those now and those to come.

I had much concern reading the pornography thread. I want every marriage here to be a happy one.

That's my prayer for everyone here. Happily Married...in Jesus. That your husbands will love you as Jesus loves the 'Church.'

As time allows and as the Lord leads me, I'll be adding more to the Romance threads...keeping it clean, but fun for everyone. There's nothing dull about the Lord and the gifts of life and love that He has for us. The world does not have it's hold on our lives and marriages.

And in the name of Jesus, every woman reading this thread will be happily married. OH do not jump back! It is God's perfect will for you to be married. Where does it say in His word that it is not so? NO where!

Forget the numbers and statistics!!! Instead, focus on God. And pray the Prayer of Hannah. Dedicate the man that God gives you to the Lord. Put him, NOW on God's 'D/L'...'Dedicated to the Lord.'

Ask God to give you a marriage that gives Him glory. God loves these prayers. He loves being asked for what seems impossible. For then He is able to say, "your faith in me has pleased me."

 

[melodee]

ShimGirl, I know that's right.

There's nothing greater than being uninhibited when it comes to pleasing your husband.

And it starts with the heart!!!

I'm glad to see this, because as Shimmie showed...it's never too late to put some spice into it.

Hey lovleyness!!!

Congrats on having a boyfriend. I waited all through high school for the one and he's now my old man.

Tread with caution on the loving part of this thread. There is much temptation for two unmarrieds, even Chrsitian ones. I think Shimmie and others have some sage words for how to stay in love with a man+on fire for Christ as well! So take notes, but hide 'em away until it's that time!

Be blessed girl.

Geez.....this is my first time reading this post and I had to go kiss my husband in the middle of reading it. It just made me fall in love all over again. Come on, Shimmie. Give us some more!!!!!!!


Also, it's nice to see sooo many other women that are married on here. I definitely need a marriage mentor. Maybe we can start that on LHCF. All of the women who have been married for awhile can be examples and points of reference for all of us youngins who haven't been married that long. Maybe I can learn how to have patience with my man. Okay let me stop hijacking this post!!!! Back to you, Shimmie!!!

 

[Radianthealth]

I did the phone message "pause...Baby...pause...I Love you" today, my Husband loved it!!!

I love thinking of creative things to spark my hubby's interest. Two Examples Below:

1. When I leave and go out of town, I make up the bed and leave my sweetly scented sexy undies on his pillow. When he lays down at night he is reminded of me...and can't wait for me to return from my trip.

2. I like to leave nice notes in places for him to find.

When I think of more...and test them out, I will post

Here's Another One Just for You, Precious One:

Take his favorite fruit juice, or homemade herbal ice tea, or fresh lemonade and freeze it in an ice cube tray.

(If you can find a heart shaped tray, it's perfect for heart-shaped ice cubes. You can purchase a heart shaped candy mold from a craft store like 'Michaels' Arts and Crafts or other type of craft store). Jello molds are good, and feel free to use any shaped mold or ice cube tray you like. Just have fun.

Now, when the cubes are frozen, take a very nice glass (crystal stemware, or a nice glass of your choice) fill the glass with the cubes.

Place the glass on a nice crystal plate and with little petals of flowers or frozen grapes or fresh unfrozen strawberries. With a very nice napkin (your choice of color, design or paper/cloth), take the glass of cubes and place it on the table beside him, with a note that says,

"When this melts, I'm all yours." Or you can whisper the same message to him in his ear. After delivering the message, go and prepare yourself to be with him for the rest of the night.

Warning: He may head to the microwave with the glass of ice cubes for a quick 'melt-down'. Either way, enjoy your husband. God's gift to you.

Why go through all the bother of the ice cubes?

Anticipation is a wonderful element for marriage. It's giving both you and your husband something 'fun' to look forward to. It takes away from the 'ordinary' - same ole, same ole of sex maybe or maybe not tonight.

It also perks him up if he's the kind who watchs TV and falls asleep. He'll stay awake knowing and wondering what you have planned for him tonight.

FYI: More Ice - More time for you to prepare If he falls asleep while your prepare, wake him gently with the ice...not harshly...but gently arouse him from his sleep. (Use your imagination ).

See, now that's what I'm talking about. Trimbride you have so much beauty in you to offer. We have our own -- not the world's to keep our husbands excited and interested.

Happy marriage to you, Angel. God's blessings upon you and your husband forever. THANK YOU. You are helping other wives and future wives far more than you realize.

Wives ONLY can do this. Wives to be ... Just be ready.
Take notes. This will happen for you. Yes it will. We are all in agreement for all to be happily married.

 

[Shimmie]

Especially for you, Beautiful Wives... Enjoy your wonderful husbands.

May the blessings of the Lord always abound toward you and your marriage.

May the blessings of the Lord give you a new awakening of one another's growth and adapt to each other's needs and how to abide.

May the blessings of the Lord give you wisdom in all things and uncommon favor in all that you aspire to do.

May the blessings of the Lord give you more health, more prosperity, more life abundantly.

May the Covenant blessings of the Lord always be upon your marriage in the most intimate of times that you will share and cherish and savor forever.

Beloved wives, you are the head and not the tail, you are above only and not beneath, you are the one and only adored by your husband, his queen, his treasure, you are....... His wife forever.

In Jesus's name, Amen and Amen.


Wives, while he is sleeping, gently 'kiss his eyes' and allow your spirit of love and prayers to transcend into his heart..... as he sleeps...guard him with your loving, living prayers, which keep him alive and well. Safe from the enemy's harm...all his life long.

In Jesus's name, Amen.
