Excellent Wife Material?

By Tosin Ojumu

A short ebook from my relationship series and blog: "Finding Mr Huggie-Wuggie" that is all about building an outstanding foundation for an outstanding Christian marriage. This ebook explains what I mean when I say I will be an excellent wife - but be warned, it's kinda hot!:
“... There was once this incident in the somewhat distant past where I referred to myself as bad wife material. Actually that “bad wife material” incident was one of the things that helped me learn how to be honest about myself and yet positive as I aim to be on this blog, and in a way missteps like that were necessary to get to some of the things that I now understand. However remembering that particular phrase always makes me cringe, for two reasons...”

OK, this is a bit of a big ebook title. Before you read this ebook, if you are a Christian, I STRONGLY encourage you to spend time praying for a pure heart to read what it says. This is not because there is anything in this post that is wrong, or unwisely phrased or unhelpful. Rather, it is because I know the way the human heart and mind work. I don't want anyone to use anything in this post as licence to go and do something silly. There is absolutely nothing in this post that could legitimately be considered permission to act this way. However the same way some people twist the Bible to get from it the very opposite of what it actually says is the same way I know some people might be tempted to use this post.

Alternatively, if you are dubious or sceptical, or cannot possibly envisage what I mean, by all means read the post, then go and pray.

So once again, this is a very big ebook title. I cannot by any means claim to fully understand this issue. This is but one aspect of something that has many strands. I also understand that this battle against sexual temptation is one that we fight on an ongoing basis. As with all battles against our sinful nature, no-one can claim to have comprehensively defeated sexual temptation until they get to Heaven. That is, I believe that God gives us the tools to fight and win, but we have to fight on an ongoing basis while we are down here on earth. There is always the possibility that this temptation will rear up another fire-breathing head again, just as we have finished cutting off the last one.

So then, bearing in mind that this issue is very big, and I cannot possibly claim to understand everything about it, please let me share with you a little of what I do understand.

This is an issue that I have been thinking about and trying to understand for a very long time. I know that it is something to which we as human beings are very susceptible generally, and I know that it is a favoured weapon in the hands of the devil to use to pull down God's mighty warriors specifically. And then obviously at any particular time I am very aware of what is happening in my own mind and heart.

So then this is what I have recently come to understand. Now I do believe that this is from God. However, I am not trying to establish new doctrine. As with everything in my relationship writings or anything else I could write, please please test it, evaluate it, pray over it and edit it as necessary to make it useful in your life. If you do not find any use for it then by all means reject it. However I think that it is important for us to be aware of this subject, and especially for everyone to recognise that no-one is immune. Even such a Bible heavyweight as King David, a man whose heart was perfect before God, committed adultery and subsequently murder and brought a big curse on his family line after him. His son, King Solomon, whom God blessed with abundant wisdom and unfathomable wealth, let his heart be turned away from God by the thousand-odd women with whom he got romantically and sexually involved - he married 700 wives and three hundred
