#882 - 10 RANDOM REFLECTIONS ON RELATIONSHIPS

  • Being rich in relationships is an undervalued form of wealth.

  • Grieving how the nature of relationships change, as the seasons of our life change, is healthy and necessary.

  • Sometimes, physical absence in a relationship is a requirement for spiritual growth.

  • The moment we value physical presence in a relationship over spiritual growth, we have made that relationship into an idol.

  • A true test of the strength of a relationship is removing physical proximity.

  • The strongest relationships in my life have two things in common: shared experiences (both joyful and sorrowful ones) and time (years I’ve known the person).

  • You can’t fight to maintain and strengthen every relationship in your life, but if you’re not fighting for any relationships, that’s probably a problem.

  • Lack of relational health and lack of emotional health are inextricably intertwined.

  • Enjoying good food together and building strong relationships go hand in hand.

  • Cherish the moments. Take no meaningful relationship for granted. Tomorrow is not promised.
