Quotes about Intimacy
Become a man or woman of prayer...Let your heart and mind be kept close to the principal calling of your life, which is to hunger and thirst after God and His righteousness...Let the thoughts and intents of your heart be shaped and guided by time spent in His presence.

sexuality is sacred, and using it for amusement brings diminishing returns.
— Ravi Zacharias
In the early days of marriage, joy precedes the act. Tragically, as the years go by joy can be severed from the act until finally, the act itself is no more. This ought not to be. Over time it is the companionship that brings joy, and service is the natural outworking of the joy of commitment. Failure to act kills it.
— Ravi Zacharias

Great relationships are one of the most precious treasures in life, but we must feed them regularly by putting time into them.

God's voice to Elijah wasn't in the power of the wind, the earthquake, or the fire, but in the whisper. Elijah had a reining ear, one that was trained and sensitive toward his Master, so he did what God said to do, which saved his life. God still speaks softly and in whispers deep in our hearts today. Ask Him to give you a hearing ear so you can hear His still, small voice.
— Joyce Meyer
The only thing that truly satisfies the longing within is to know God more intimately today than we did yesterday.
— Joyce Meyer
Whoever you are, now I place my hand upon you/ That you may be my poem/ I whisper with my lips close to your ear/ I have loved many women and men, but I love none better than you.
— Walt Whitman
