Starting this off with a little of my story with friends and how I could made healthier relationship and then I’ll explain on how I learned and continue to learn though Gods word and the community I’m in now to continue to build health and Godly relationships with friends and family
Growing up I never had a shortage of friends I would hang out with and raise the normal chaos that teenagers do on weekends. But because of my personality and from some experiences from my past,I became very insecure and started to believe a lot of lies of what people thought of me. Of how people didn’t care about me or I’m not good though to hangout with certain groups. Because of that I didn’t open my scars and wounds to friends and therefore I kept a lot of relationships at surface level and never shared what was on my heart.
BUT GOD. BUT GOD
I want on the world race where their mission is; intimacy, community, and mission. With those three things I learned very quickly the importance of having friends, (now know to me as family) and having vulnerability, sharing the hard things, and how much you can grow when you speak from the heart. All of these things won’t happen without the help of our Heavenly Father.
For example when i first got here I never thought I would be sharing past experiences that I never shared with people that were my friends for the past 4 years. One thing that I really learned was to invite my brothers and sisters into what I was experiencing in my life. Fun things or hard things, fun things that they would be a praise report to God and that it could be a encourage to your friends if they are struggling in that area, and the hard things and tell them your goals and how you what to grow in that situation,that way they can hold me accountable in that area and also in my walk with Christ
So my encouragement and challenge to all my readers is, what are you doing that will build a deeper relationship with God and your friends.
1 John 4:7-11. Beloved, let us love one another, for love is from God, and whoever loves has been born of God and knows God. Anyone who does not love does not know God, because God is love. In this the love of God was made manifest among us, that God sent his only son into the world, so that we might live through him. In this is love, not that we have loved God but that he loved us and sent his son to be the propitiation for our sins. Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another
One last thing is, that if your not sure what love is or how that looks opening up to people and showing love that way , I would love to answer any questions on the subjects of love !!! For the questions you can text 7174057194 Please text because I don’t have my phone all the time
