Many times we forget the power of our main core of loving construction. Learn how to get closer to your loved ones in the following article.
"May the Lord make your love increase and overflow for each other and for everyone else, just as ours does for you." 1 Thessalonians 3:12
Creating genuine, healthy relationships with peers requires an ongoing commitment. In order to live in peace with others, it is very important that we do not take this statement and give it more importance than it deserves in our walk with the Lord.
It is important to remember that if we are to demonstrate the love that God's Word teaches us, we must focus on the successive things we must undertake and improve throughout our lives.
Harmony in our relationships with others is very important. Meeting in peace with our brothers and sisters makes us happy and satisfied.
"A friend loves at all times, and a brother is born for a time of adversity." Proverbs 17:17
In a world where the media and social networks strongly promote choice, this can be a difficult task. To do so, we must be willing to listen, behave, express our feelings with respect and the truth of our heart, be kind, respectful and have the wisdom to stand back from what is needed.
By developing in us the gifts of humility, patience and obedience, we come closer to what the Word of the Most High teaches us. Our Heavenly Father wants us to share our lives with our brothers and sisters in a real and honest way.
God created us to live in community, to share our joy, but our burdens are also very heavy. For this it is important that we listen wholeheartedly to what our brothers and sisters tell us, because the Word of Jehovah is present in our lives.
"Yours, Lord, is the greatness and the power and the glory and the majesty and the splendor, for everything in heaven and earth is yours. Yours, Lord, is the kingdom; you are exalted as head over all." 1 Chronicles 29:11
Sometimes we only listen to what interests us or catches our attention. Therefore, it is important to have a positive and constructive attitude.
On the other hand, we should be honest with others, speak clearly and try not to offend the speaker. The way we look at a certain event may not agree with what another person wants to hear. However, if we speak with the confidence that we are speaking under the direction of our Heavenly Father, we should not be afraid.
When, out of a sincere and loving response, we are angered or insulted by our brother, or sister, we should not hesitate to listen to the sign that God has sent us, which invites us to stop in time to work, so that we do not regret what we may say or how we may react to this event. We must believe that Christ will work for each of his sons and daughters.
"So in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you, for this sums up the Law and the Prophets." Matthew 7:12
As we listen to our brethren and spare them important matters, we must give them time and respect. When we listen or feel, we heal and relieve our anxiety.
Let us listen to His voice to be the best instruments we can be in His hands. May our willingness to relate in harmony with our brothers and sisters be a reflection of the love and peace that God desires for all His children.
We should not take such comments as a sign of weakness. Throughout our lives, we will have more difficult moments than others. In fertile soil the fruits of Jehovah's Word grow without hindrance, but in places where there is much hatred we must use patience to rekindle the light of Christ's love.
There is no such thing as quality time. This advice applies not only to parents but to children as well and to all our loved ones.
There is no such thing as "quality time," which dictates that half an hour of playtime in full concentration with the children can make up for five hours of companionship. The time that really matters is the time you dedicate to your family, what are you waiting for?
