The world today Is attempting to destroy the power of relationship. On daily basis, the principles of good relationship are not only broken but destroyed. Today, people are advised to express themselves anyhow. This is called civilization and freedom of speech. The virtue of honour to the elders is destroyed by the way people address each other. Yes, we should not be intimidated to talk to anyone when we ought to, yet moral demands that we do it with honour and respect for each other (Colossians 4:6).
The word of
God tells us that no matter what the world is turning to; we are to keep
obeying the scriptures (Matthew 7:24). That is when we can have the best of
relationship. The word of God is the book of love. This is because; God is love
(1 John 4:7-8). His lifestyle, attitude and habit are all love. If we therefore
want to have the best of relationship, we will have to learn how to do that
from the word of God.
Remember, we
are people who are temperamental in all things. That is why you cannot allow
yourself to be absolutely free without a principle guiding you in all that you
do. It is these principles that will not let us go astray. By this, we will not
fall prey to the tricks of the devil. No one knows it all. So, don’t live
without a guiding standard to keep you in wisdom (Proverbs 25:28). Peace.
PRAYER:
Lord, help me to take your word as my guiding principle in my relationship.
“A LIFE WITHOUT
A GUIDE IS LIKE A CITY WITHOUT BORDER, OPEN TO ALL ATTACK”
