Traveling the "L" in the Chicago area puts one in touch with people and their lives. Living in North Alabama almost everyone you pass is in a car or truck. So here are all these people going by but they (and yourself) are enclosed by all that glass, steel and plastic. You are close but separated. You can't sense them spiritually, emotionally or physically. But put them six inches away in a subway car and you become quite aware of their presence on all levels. Being with hundreds of people for a week affects you. One tends to pray for the person next to you. I rarely pray for people driving by except to ask God to help their driving skills! Today I would say: "Get close, get involved, and God will flow through you."
