INTIMATE!!

This time last week we were on a jet winging it back to Atlanta after 7 days of sun and fun! It has been a busy week with travel and work...obviously vacation is over! KUDOS to my UNC Tarheels for going to 4-1 yesterday with their win over UCONN. We always have a basketball team but it has been awhile since the football team was on anyone's "worry" list when they lined up to play them.
The weather is gorgeous...you have to love this time of year with the temperatures dropping, leaves turning, high school football Fridays, Halloween, county fairs, etc..
Several things came out of our Sunday School lesson today that impacted me. I had already seen the email that is currently circulating as to how, during World War II, Winston Churchhill had implored the people of Great Britain to pray for the safety of the nation each night at 9 p.m.. We all know what happened as England was protected from invasion. As Christians, we have been asked to pray for our nation each night at 9 p.m.. We are the moral compass and majority of our nation, but too often we are the "silent" majority. It is time that we step up to kneel down and ask our Heavenly Father to have His will here on earth in the areas of the election, financial turmoil, wars and rumors of wars.
Secondly, the word "intimate." Today we were discussing intimacy, both with God and with those we love and care about. One of the ladies in our class told us that when she thought of this word, she broke it down to "IN-TO-ME-SEE." Isn't that what intimacy is...allowing others to see into ourselves??
I believe it is!
