RELATIONSHIPS BY THE BIBLE..

Truly the bible embodies Everything in life. My friend omone sent this to me, I thought to share, enjoy....



RELATIONSHIPS

Genesis 2:18.

We should walk with people that need us but not with those that we need. Psalm 1:1.

There are 3 types of people in your life.

1.
The Concessionists: Those whose mission in life is to enjoy your rewards without seeing the necessity to embrace your beliefs. They could be family members, acquaintances. They just want to enjoy the fruit of your labor without ever working for their own.

 

2.
The Confidants: Those that seem to be neutral. People who you begin to confide in. it is nearly impossible to tell their effects. They are “friends and fun people”, but they take you nowhere.

 

3.
The Committed: Those who are dedicated and loyal to sow back into you in the same manner that you have laid your life for them. These are those we usually take for granted. They are rare. They carry your future in their heart.

 

P.S.

Our problem is we spend more time with people we love not people who love and honor us.

 

RELATIONSHIPS THAT DETERMINE YOUR SUCCESS.

 

1.
Those who motivate your obedience to God. Job 36:11, Joshua 24:15, Proverbs 13:20

“Compromise is the pen that writes the story of your future regret”.


2.
Those who self-correct, that is, they see evil and automatically correct it. Genesis 39:9,

Acts 23:1-5. 

“Self-correction is a mark of proven character”


3.
Those who inspire your faith.  Mark 2:1-5

“Faith is not the absence of fear, it is denying fear the right to speak”.


4.
Those who exemplify honor. 1Peter 2:17, 2Peter 2:9-10, Hebrews 13:17, 1Samuel 24:1-7

“We must stop thinking about the price of honor and consider the story it reveals”.
