Intimacy

Last night i went to see a guy speak called Kevin Peat. He was talking about living your destiny amd what gets in the way. One of the things he talked about was the word intimacy. We live in a world where relationships seem to move really quick, and the quicker you get to sex the better. We see young people looking for instant gratification, and so the word relationship doesn't have the same meaning as for previous generations. It is about what we get out of it, rather than working through something, giving as much, if not more than what you are recieving. Kevin mentioned that he had heard once that intimacy warrants the phrase..into me see. How many people do we let see the real us. He was talking about intimacy with God, letting him see all of you. It is amazing that despite all our faults God still loves us when we let Him in, and our fear is that when we let people in they will reject us because they don't like what they see so we don't let them in and see what we can get out of others. I think i was very challenged.
