Making Your Man a Priority

We were so blessed to have Heidi Hagemeier come and share her what God has placed on her heart about making our men a priority.  Making your husband a priority starts in the heart, flows to the mind, affects our attitude, and overflows into our actions. Start by having a
heart of gratitude. By changing your thought life, you can change your
marriage.

Be diligent and take every thought captive. Stop and evaluate if your
thoughts are on the right track. Write down your thoughts if that helps you
track them. Replace negative, disrespectful thoughts with positive ones.

Make sure you're praying and be mindful of what you are allowing into your
mind through cultural influences such as the media. You become like that
which you surround yourself with in terms of what you watch, listen to, read
and participate in.

Remember that your attitude overflows into your sex life.Know what God's
biblical view of sex is and have more of it! God created sex as a chance
for us to procreate, experience the gift of pleasure, and to mirror the
relationship He wants us to have with Him. 

Things that sabotage our frequency of sex with our husband can include our
attitude, our libido, our physical health, our self-image and our energy.
Evaluate these areas for yourself and see where you can make changes and
then pray about it. Be careful again not to let our cultural "norms" rob
you of this important part of your marriage relationship. Change your
attitude, make a commitment to healthy living, evaluate yourself according
to who God says you are, and adjust the activities of yourself and your
family so that you do have the energy to invest in your relationship.

Take the time to discuss this with your man.  Make a frequency goal together and stick to it.  See how God blesses your marriage.  You can do it ladies!
