In addition to emotional and physical intimacy, spiritual intimacy is a critical component to a successful marriage relationship. I prayed for Cal for years and, Praise God, he found Him in his own way…
“In (Cal’s) own way he said he knew Jesus. He was never comfortable attending church services. But if he ever expressed the desire, I was willing to change churches to be together with him at church. He came to many of my small group potluck parties, so many of my church friends knew and accepted him. He described himself as a ‘half breed’ when asked about his faith (half Jewish and half believer in Christ.) Unfortunately, we never really experienced spiritual intimacy. I really missed that in our marriage. It is the deepest level of oneness.
I prayed that God would show me how to share Jesus in a meaningful way that would help Cal understand Who He is and who we are in Him.”*
