There are many good things we can learn from being in relationships, but we can learn just as much from going through a breakup and being single again.
Our Lord was perfect and constantly in unison with His Father. Seeking to be like Him is a task that seems impossible. But there are a few little attitudes of Jesus that are easier to adopt, and that’s a good place to start.
No one needs to teach us the law of retaliation (an eye for an eye). Our flesh is only satisfied when our aggressor becomes a victim. But this avenue only produces more retaliation. God has another path for us.
We have been waiting for the answer to our prayer for a very long time. Has God forgotten us? Why is He not acting? Frustration can build quickly. What if God was working…out of our field of vision?
It’s good to have ambition, but we must not live in the doldrums until these dreams are accomplished. Our joy needs to come from our salvation. Our sense of satisfaction must depend on our relationship with God.
