As the Gospel saturates our lives one mark of a true relationship to God is that our relationships to others improves as well. Are you currently growing in grace and peace with other people? If not, I would encourage you to think about how this affects your relationship with God. I know no one is perfect and we are all on the path of sanctification and there is always room for improvement. Amen? Take a look at the bulleted points below, Dr. James Clark gave some excellent thoughts concerning the restoration of relationships.
- Admit the condition of the relationship
- Admit your selfishness, sin. Seek forgiveness where it is needed.
- Make a decision to work together in cooperation.
- Begin acting out of love.
- Thank God for those in the relationship.
Give me some bible verses to include with these as well as some comments.
