What an awesome weekend. I really had a great time preaching (Well not really preaching) from a comfy chair. And to sit there with my beautiful wife and talk about love....whooooohoo!!!! So here's a recap of what we talked about.
1) Men need respect: For a man respect equals love. The same way ladies feel when they are receiving they love that they so desperately need. Respect is the key to your man's heart.
2) Men are insecure: The got-it-all-together exterior is just there to help protect them from the reality that they don't have it all together and if someone found out it would defeat them. It's protecting a vulnerability. Ladies if you're desiring your man to open up to you and share true inner feelings it will only happen when you begin to respect. When he sees that, he will not feel threatened that you are going to expose his weaknesses.
3) Men want more sex: In reality it's not the sex act itself that brings satisfaction to a man it's the desire that the woman has for him that fills his love tank. That desire boosts his confidence in every area of his life. To know that his woman desires him sexually will give him the confidence to defeat any giant in his life. It will also cause him to be more responsive to your needs for intimacy.
This is just three of the seven understandings that the book "For Women Only" discusses. We have started some women's groups that will go through the book in detail. Michelle and I believe that it will truly enhance your relationship, it sure has helped us.
