You Better, Me Better

One of the goals I think everyone should have including Christian Singles is to live in such a way that the people we interact are "ENABLED" to be better people.

  • We should submit to God's will and be willing to be His instruments of the fulfillment of His will in the lives of others
  • We should pray for people we know and love by name and those prayers should relate to their specific circumstances
  • We should love others as God loves us. God's love ALWAYS improves us and His love in us should do the same for others.
  • We should trust God enough that our focus is on helping others without being distracted by trying to help ourselves. God helps those who help others.
  • We should always be willing to put our love into action in a spirit of service. Let's stop expressing fake love and let's start expressing the REAL stuff!

By doing these things, we are positioning others to improve and become better. Forget all of that other stuff we have been taught about the goals of our relationships. If the people we interact with are not better after having been in a relationship with us, then how can we claim to be true children of God?
