Making the Right Connections
The
value of building Connections with others that are built on respect, loyalty
and trust cannot be underestimated. The highest quality relationships are those
built on love and respect. The Right Connection is not necessarily about your agenda or things that you have in mind
or are hoping will happen because of the relationship or connection. With a divine connection you don’t have to
make it happen it is very natural. Also
know when you are supposed to connect them with someone else. Sometimes you are
only meeting them, but you are their connection to someone else that is apart
of their Destiny.
The
Bible is full of illustrations concerning ‘divine connections.’ David
could not possess his kingdom with Jonathan… there would be no Boaz for Ruth
without Naomi… Nehemiah accomplished in 52 days what Israel could not
accomplish in years because of his positive relationships with the king of
Persia, and his ability to find loyalty and trust among the people of
Jerusalem.
What
constitutes a ‘right connection?’ A relationship that creates a positive
contribution to your life, offers nourishment to your mental, emotional,
physical or spiritual well-being, and/or supports a God-given goal, mission or
vision is a ‘Right Connection.’ This kind of relationship is often
complementary, offering all parties involved the opportunity to ‘share their
weaknesses,’ strengths with each other, and help each other fulfill their callings.
CONNECTIONS
How do you make a right Connection? The highest quality Relationships
are built out of mutual respect and unconditional love. The greatest
commandment, given in Matthew 22:37-39, tells us: “Jesus said unto him, “Thou
shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy soul, and with all they mind. This is
the first and great commandment. And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt
love thy neighbor as thyself.” Right connections are the fruit of having
unconditional love. But you cannot love others until you love yourself, and you
cannot truly love yourself until you know God’s love -- by acknowledging His
love for you!
Remember:
connection with God releases His love in and through you -- and enables you to
make the Right Connections with others that will bring forth blessings in your
life and those that God connects you with!
