✨The community you were created for is waiting for you✨
Godly community is not optional for the Christian - God is setting a standard that humanity is called to live in oneness together. We are called to live in community.
Here are some standards to set as you evaluate and look for true, authentic, healthy friends.
- Find relationships that are going to sharpen you (Prov. 27:17), not cut you up.
- Find relationships that will stand through adversity. Godly friends love at all times. (Prov. 17:17)
- Find people who will show up and participate. Godly friends are active, not passive; they cooperate, encourage, and help. (Prov. 18:24)
- Find someone who is not envious of what God is doing in your life. Rejoice for one another
- Forgive quickly- friends will hurt each other, usually unintentionally; godly friends resolve tension and don’t let it linger.
- Find someone who will speak and seek truth. Godly friends speak truth in love and desire truth in the relationship. Healthy relationships have accountability.
