1 Thessalonians 5:11
So encourage each other and build each other up, just as you are already doing.
I always want to be intentional about relationship building but the truth is, we are like LEGOs when it comes to relationships. We have a limited number of spots on our “relational blocks” to connect to others and when our block is full, we stop trying to connect.........
.......our relational block may be fully connected, but does that mean we can’t lift other people with connections?
How To Sow A Relationship Seed?
G — Greet someone you’ve never met
Hebrews 13:2
Do not neglect to show hospitality to strangers, for thereby some have entertained angels unawares.
I — Introduce somebody to someone they’ve never met
1 Thessalonians 5:11
Therefore encourage one another and build one another up, just as you are doing.
F — Follow-up on someone you’ve met recently
Hebrews 10:24-25
And let us consider how to stir up one another to love and good works, not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another, and all the more as you see the Day drawing near.
T — Thank You(s)
Colossians 3:15
And let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which indeed you were called in one body. And be thankful.
