Relationships.
They are the driving force behind great acts of courage and daring as well as the most heinous crimes man can imagine. They bring out the best in us and challenge us to greater heights. They bring out the worst in us and dare us to violate our core values.
Sex. Power. Control. These are catalysts for forming and merging relationships. And then there’s love. We can’t help but dive into a relationship head first when we’re crazy in love.
Society runs on relationships—an economic stimulus no government can manipulate. Our country is strong when godly relationships surge. But when relationships are built on greed, mistrust, deception, our country suffers and stumbles.
A successful relationship, no matter if it’s business or personal, formal or familial, is built on one simple principle our mothers taught us when we were toddlers: To have a friend, be a friend.
Enough said.
