[tps_header]Is there more than one main body part a woman is supposed to love on her husband? Really, what’s more important than “that one”?
Plenty.
When you are in a truly intimate and loving marriage, you recognize that there is so much more to physical intimacy than sex. Each touch, each caress, each body part is an opportunity to have a spiritual and emotional experience with your spouse. In marriage, you shouldn’t take anything for granted. All body parts can work together for the good of spouses who love each other. This is what I mean:
Check out these 5 Body Parts I Love On My Husband:
[/tps_header]
1- His Hands
They’re soft, strong, and sure. When I can’t open a jar top, I know my husband can. It seems trivial, but it’s not. There is security in knowing he’s strong enough to do what needs to be done. Not only that, but it keeps me from trying to be superwoman and acting like I can do everything myself. Yes, a jar of jelly, a tight screw, a heavy piece of luggage, a firm grip while walking at night, or anything else that requires more strength or courage than I have, reminds me to be grateful for my man’s hands.
2- His Scalp.
Who thanks God for her man’s scalp? I do. For one, he trusts me to cut his hair, so I have an intimate relationship with it. In the shower, I wash and condition it. When he lays his head on my lap, I massage oil into it. His barber, although a professional, can’t/shouldn’t do my man’s scalp like I do. I take care of it because that’s where his crown rests. Every time I pay attention to his scalp, I acknowledge my man’s greatness. As long as I am alive, nothing and no one will stop me from protecting his crown.
3- His Feet.
I don’t have a foot fetish, at all. But my husband’s feet are powerful. When they sliver over to me under the bed sheets, I am reminded how much he needs me. For all his manliness, there is a vulnerable part that longs for intimacy and security. No, he doesn’t share his feelings everyday like I do (usually through talking), but he does find my foot, every night. The gentle, back-and-forth movement of his big toe in the arch of my foot provides just enough comfort to put me fast to sleep or to put me in the mood. Either way, I love that he uses his feet to speak when his mouth can’t.
4 – His Chest.
What better place to rest my head. I think God made my husband’s chest the exact shape and size for me to snuggle under his arm and to bury my head in the crease of his neck. Sometimes my head finds his heartbeat and plops there as well. My hubby doesn’t know it, but when I am resting on his chest, I sync our breathing. Lately I’ve noticed my daughter snuggling up to her dad just as I do. He’s even remarked, “You and your daughter are just the same.” It can be a little intrusive, I know, but when we need his chest, we take it. Move his arm, reposition the pillows and snuggle in. More recently, it’s been two at a time –mommy and daughter chest time. Then he kisses each one of his ladies on the head, assuring us that our resting place is available whenever we need it.
5- His Back.
For me, my husband’s back symbolizes covering. I take pleasure in standing behind him because his back protects me from harm and leads me in the right direction. Whether walking through a crowd or standing in the bitter cold, the closer I get to his back the more secure I feel. I know in these modern times, it’s not popular to say you stand behind your man. However, in my marriage, I’m more concerned with being in position than with being popular.
Of course, there are times when I stand beside him and even in front of him if I happen to know the way and he doesn’t. But when I am behind him, not only does he protect me, but I protect him too. ‘Till death do us part, I got his back. From head to toe, I love my man’s body. It’s a body he’s willing to sacrifice for me and his daughter, so why wouldn’t I honor and tend to it. I encourage you to think about the parts of your man’s body that you lean on and enjoy. Love on them and honor them, from head to toe
