Relationships are vital for life!!! God said it’s not good for man to be alone. Just take a look at your body. Most take the body for granted. Yet your body is composed of many organs, extremities, skin, bone, tendons, etc. Have you noticed that when you have an upset stomach, your whole body reacts? If you slam your toe against a wall by mistake, your whole body reacts. When you clap, you need both your hands. When you eat, you need both hands, your mouth, your teeth, your tongue, your stomach……I guess you get the point. If your heart fails, the whole body can die. It’s all about quality relationships. Your relationship with your church family is important. Your relationship with your wife/husband/children/father/mother is important, We were made for relationships. Above all, your relationship with God in Christ is all-important. Are you cultivating and investing in your relationships, especially in your relationship with God? Remember, in the same way that your body can die if one or more of your organs give up and cease to function within the body, if we give up on our faith in God, we will die spiritually. Never, ever give up that all-important relationship!
Ephesians 4: 15-16 “but, speaking the truth in love, may grow up in all things into Him who is the head—Christ— from whom the whole body, joined and knit together by what every joint supplies, according to the effective working by which every part does its share, causes growth of the body for the edifying of itself in love.
