Never let the situation mean more than the relationship. – J. Maxwell
Joseph could have brought great harm on his brothers for what they did to him, but he chose to love them instead. AMEN!
As we are made in the image of God one thing should be crystal clear to us. We were made to be in relationship with others. Just as our triune God exists in perfect harmony and desire, we were made to exist in harmonious relationships with each other. It doesn’t matter what skin color, socio-economic standing, or intellect one may have, we were made for relationship with one another. Earth is our testing ground. God brings people with imperfections into our life to help us learn how to build harmonious relationships – or learn how to perfect our love. The enemy wants us to focus on extraneous situations, God asks us to focus on the person. No matter how we slice it, people are what make life worthwhile.
Until tomorrow…..

“Be kindly affectionate to one another, with brotherly love, in honor giving preference to one another.” – Romans 12:10
