Intimate Love

Who or what are you intimately in love with? Let me back up.

We've all heard how the word Love is too commonly used and abused. But we even confuse Love with actions or deeds. Think about your closest friend or even your spouse. We tend to want to "show" love by what we say or do. But what happens when we "show", nay, demonstrate Love with relationship. I think that as you read this the word "relationship" may have too much a common connotation. Think about real Love wrapped up or even described by real Relationship. Just being with each other and fully invested in each other. That is real intimacy. Not intimacy in the way of romance or the world's skewed view of it, but closeness. Relationship.

That's what God wants with you, me, us. I've heard it for years but for some reason it has recently begun to sink in.
