Intimacy

I am writing an article about spending time alone with the Lord. I realized something really interesting as I am writing it:

In a marriage, the only way for a couple to bear fruit, is intimacy. In our relationship with God, we need intimate time alone with Him in order to spring forth His fruit and to bear His likeness.

Ever notice in the Bible when it says So-and-so Man KNEW so-and-so Woman, and she conceived a child? To really KNOW God, we need time alone with Him. I love how marriage mirrors His relationship with us.
