Why Your Desires Are Holy (Not Shameful)

There is a kind of intimacy I’ve always craved —one that lives beneath the surface of touch and into the marrow of connection.

Not just sex.Not just chemistry.

But obsession… in the holiest way.The kind where you get lost in your partner across a room.Where his scent feels like home.Where a glance from him drops you to your knees — not in submission, but in reverence.

The kind of intimacy where a lifetime together would never be enough —because your souls have already lived lifetimes in each other.

For a long time, I thought that made me too much.Too needy.Too sexual.Too intense.

I didn’t understand the difference between craving physical validation… and craving soul-level intimacy.

So I chased touch when what I really longed for was to be felt.

I labeled myself wrong.I dulled my wanting.I thought desire was something to manage — not something to honor.

But now?Now I know.

Desire isn’t dirty.It’s divine.

I know this because I’m living it.I’m in a partnership now where desire is sacred.Where our connection is both primal and poetic.Where a smirk in the mirror at the gym feels like foreplay.Where trust has allowed my body to soften, and in that softness —I feel safe to want more.

Because I’m not just desiring him.I’m desiring me.My full self.My full power.My full design.

There’s a reason the world has tried to make women feel shame for wanting.

Because a woman who desires freely…is a woman who can’t be controlled.

She will ask for what she needs.She will set standards.She will refuse breadcrumbs.She will expect depth.And she will ignite everyone around her.

“Desire, to me, is everything.”

It tells you what you’re made of.What you’ll fight for.What you’re not willing to live without.

It shapes your boundaries.It clarifies your dreams.It directs your energy.

And it builds your life.

To the woman reading this who has been suppressing her longings —Whether they’re emotional, sensual, spiritual, or creative —Let me say this clearly:

You are not greedy.You are not selfish.You are not too much.

You are waking up.

Wanting more doesn’t make you ungrateful.Wanting growth makes you alive.And wanting to be desired doesn’t make you vain.It makes you human.

There is strength in truth.There is strength in trust.Your power lies in Him — and in him.In God.And in the man who sees your softness as sacred.

The feminine was never meant to live in silence.You were never meant to shrink behind your roles.You were made to glow with wanting — to breathe with longing — to be fully, wildly, beautifully alive.

So lean in.Ask for it.Crave it.Claim it.

Because your desires are not shameful.They are holy.
