A kiss without any shame

A kiss without any shame. Something I've never experienced in previous relationships. It almost always seemed forbidden. Something that I shouldn't do. Something that would lead me to wanting to do more. I would feel the urge to kiss, but it felt wrong. It felt wrong and I felt really ashamed of the feelings. But other times I gave into the feelings. I pushed aside the shame and lost myself in those moments. I let myself get carried away. I let myself loose control. And when kissing wasn't enough, I would want more. I wasn't satisfied. So I did more. And when that wasn't enough, I would want even more. I wasn't satisfied, so I did even more. And the vicious cycle repeated itself until I realized I had gone to far and needed to stop.

A kiss without any shame. Something I've been beginning to experience that I didn't think was possible. And what an amazing experience! A kiss not based on emotions; a kiss not based on erotic passion; a kiss not based on a cheep, fake, imitation of love; but a kiss with substance. A kiss as an expression of real love. A kiss expressed with kindness and gentleness. A kiss with careful consideration and respect for the others boundaries. A kiss where I am not loosing myself in the moment, and losing control. Make no mistake, kissing can and is certainly grounds where the devil has ample opportunity to strike and cause great temptation. When I am alert and focused on God, even when kissing, I am prepared and ready for Satan's attack. And when it does come, by God's grace and through the power of the holy spirit, I can and have overcome those attacks. Thank you Lord, for your grace! Thank you Lord, for your holy spirit! Thank you Lord, for this beautiful experience! Thank you Lord, for this amazing, wonderful, inspiring, encouraging, challenging, wise, beautiful woman that you have placed in my life! Thank you Lord!  

A kiss without any shame. Something Beautiful.

~~~Newsboys - Something Beautiful~~~


I wanna start it over
I wanna start again
I want a new a new beginning
One without any end
I feel it inside
Calling out to me

CHORUS
It's a voice that whispers my name
It's a kiss without any shame
Something beautiful
Like a song that stirs in my head
Singing love will take us where
Something's beautiful

I've heard it in the silence
Seen it on a face
I've felt it in a long hour
Like a sweet embrace
I know this is true
It's calling out to me

CHORUS
It's a voice that whispers my name
It's a kiss without any shame
Something beautiful
Like a song that stirs in my head
Singing love will take us where
Something's beautiful

It's the child on her wedding day
It's the daddy that gives her away--Father
Something beautiful
When we laugh so hard we cry
It's the love between you and I
Something beautiful
