Right Expectations

Do you remember a time when your expectations weren’t met? When you thought it would turn out one way, but it didn’t measure up after you experienced it, saw it, or received it? Because the world has influenced our views of sex and marriage, many have felt cheated or robbed of this fantastic thing called marriage or this amazing thing called sex. You hear all these grand stories, but are left asking, "Is there more?"

I invite you to dive deeper into the story of King Solomon and his wife on their wedding day and their first night married. The Bible is clear on God’s plan for sex. He created it and wants us to enjoy it for His glory and satisfaction. Sex is not the goal of marriage. We can’t all be like Solomon and his wife on their wedding night. But. we can learn from how they talk to each other, see each other, and value one another.

If you are married, I hope to give you information to apply to your marriage. If sex is your goal in marriage, then I hope that through these devotionals, you see that much more is to be desired. Sex is a benefit of marriage, but the relational intimacy built by Solomon and his wife should be the main point.

If you are single and reading these, I hope you find knowledge and insight to store up for later. We can be grateful that God didn't leave us hanging on our own but has given us wisdom and insight for every area of our lives. He gave us a whole book of the Bible to talk about love and relationships. Wherever you are in your relationship status, I want you to see that there is also a deeper story of God's pursuit, care, and love for His church that you can see through the story of Solomon chasing, wooing, and caring for his wife.

In your life, where have you learned most about sex? Has the Lord had the final say in your perspective and desired outcome? What are you most excited about when you think about your marriage or future marriage? If you correct your expectations and prioritize what Solomon and the Lord want you to prioritize, then you will never feel cheated or lacking in your marriage. You will feel satisfied and pleased that the Lord has given you everything you need.
