Do You Need Comforted?

By Robert Irwin, October 3, 2008 11:51 am

In Sexual Skills For The Christian Husband, we tell the story of how a wife chose to comfort her husband by being available, sexually.

He was struggling with career issues and was bordering on depression and anxiety.

Without asking, she increased the frequency in which she initiated sex because she knew that this was one way that she could (without a bunch of discussion) comfort her husband during a tough time.

Many times, the comfort is in NOT pushing the sexual issue…while your spouse works through a difficult time.

And, of course, sex is only one of the areas in a marriage in which we can provide comfort.

If you are not ACTIVELY attempting to avoid the news, lately, it is almost impossible to not get anxious about our future.

Bad economic news.

Hurricanes.

Potential wars.

And, I’m sure, many of you are dealing with REAL emergencies in your life…RIGHT NOW…not just abstract “potential” problems.

If you are, THIS is exactly when you need to turn to your marriage relationship for strength and comfort.

But, if you are dealing with relationship issues that make this “iffy,” start with the only reliable source for comfort…God.

God cares about your situation.

He cares about your marriage.

He WILL both comfort you and change things…

Just ask.

Below is a video to Brenton Brown’s song “Comfort Me.”

I hope you find it helpful.

Have a great weekend.
