Summary
You have an Assignment (1 Cor 7:17). A plan a purpose God laid out for you to do.
A set group of people He wants you to impact.
Jesus didn't assign you to everyone.
He even had limits on himself.
Jesus himself limited his prayers: "I am not praying for the world, but for those whom you have given me" John 17:9
But if we think that we're supposed to be doing everything, we'll miss who He is really assigning us to. Thus, His perfect plan doesn't go forward.
This impacts your sex life, and is impacted by your sex life. Whether you're a woman or a man this has impact.
I think this allows us to all take a breath and say, "Lord help me to know who you have given me.
Help me to be content with who you have given me. Help me to truly serve, love and impact only those you have given me".
And if all of us did that... then the world would look a lot different, I think.
I share how I'm doing that in my life, with my family and in my current launch of the renewed Masculinity Reclaimed program right now.
I share how men I've worked with (who I believe God put in my assignment) have been able to stop "burning with passion" even though they're married and get on with what God wants them doing. Because after my program they are more Christ-centered men.
One--maybe surprising--thing I share in this episode is how I wish my ex-husband took the Masculinity Reclaimed course. It's basically written for a man who thinks like that to help him become a man who thinks like my current husband...a man by his behavior and heart motivates me to want to make love to him. (I'll tell you it works!)
I hope this encourages you to deeply reflect on your Assignment and the role sex plays in it. And I pray that will help direct your steps.
Enrollment for the Masculinity Reclaimed program is open now, but is closing very soon, so I hope you register now. Delightyourmarriage.com/mrsp

| 0:30.2 | discern who God has assigned you to? |
| 0:32.9 | And in a lot of that, I'm going to be talking about my own journey on what I'm dealing with right now. |
| 0:38.4 | And I've got some stories around that. And I've also got some really exciting stories of |
| 0:42.7 | transformation when men have decided to transform and fix the issue so that they can go on and |
| 0:51.9 | do God's work. And a lot of them, I have had the opportunity and privilege of being assigned to them. |
| 0:59.1 | And so I have gotten to help them cross over the threshold of suffering to joy and peace |
| 1:06.4 | and Christ-centered relationship so they can get on with what God wants them to do. |
| 1:11.3 | And sex is a huge piece of a man's heart. |

| 1:19.5 | supposed to be stretching ourselves too thin, but we are assigned to specific people. |
