FRIENDSHIPS THAT LAST
A Daystar Article.
Every kind of relationship, be it romantic or mutual friendship, when not governed by the word of God ends up in hurt, abuse, abrasive contentions, disloyalty and betrayals. It's only a matter of time if these are not already happening, the inevitable will surely be pronounced and visible in that relationship if it's not subject to the Word of God.
Outside the discipline and standard of God's word, godly relationships become open to unrighteous thoughts and actions. Proverbs 1:3|TPT reveals “Those who cling to these words will receive discipline to demonstrate wisdom (righteousness) in every relationship and to choose what is right and just and fair”.
1 Corinthians:13:7 |TLB speaks bluntly, “If you love someone, you will be loyal to him no matter what the cost. You will always believe in him, always expect the best of him, and always stand your ground in defending him”.
Make every effort to measure the foundation of every relationship you're involved in with the righteousness of God, which is His word. Only then can you be assured of a future for that relationship.
The opposite of 1 Corinthians 13:7 is imminent for every relationship outside the boundaries of God's word, betrayal and disloyalty is sure to happen. Believe this truth and live by it everyday in this world.
