The Search For Intimacy

Many, if not most, people feel a deep inward need for intimacy.

While many hope for intimacy and search for it, it is ultimately difficult to find due to the fundamental selfishness of humanity.

There is an intimacy of “getting inside each other” that would not have happened if there had never been hurts that needed healing.

One of the reasons God allows us to experience hurt is so that we can have a deeper intimacy with Him. For those who have experienced this, it is a special place to be.

And as an added bonus to this special intimacy with God, as we experience His comfort, we are better able to comfort others who are going through the same situation.

God doesn’t allow anything you’ve gone through to go to waste.
