Relationships matter.


Like a church sign says here in Stockbridge, "You never see a hearst with a luggage rack." You cannot carry any of your possessions with you when you die. The only thing that you will take with you are relationships. When you stand before the judgment seat of God, you will be judged on your relationship with His Son and how you share your relationship with others.

Next to Jesus, nothing affects your destiny more than your relationships, who you allow to influence and affect your life. I have heard it said, "Show me your five closest friends, and I will show you your future." We have a tendency to let people, who are in our lives, help steer our lives. If that be the case, then we need to take a good look at who is driving this ship.

Relationships can get messy. Being apart of people's lives can be a burden at times. But it makes life worth it when you get to celebrate a victory that you have been helping a friend fight for. There is nothing like someone you love coming beside you when you are tired and do not think you can take another step and encouraging you to press on.

Relationships in life are all that really matter. Money will be spent, things will fade or break, but it is friendships that stand the test of time.
