The best way to sabotage a relationship that God has given to you:
- become hyper-focused on where you disagree or how you’re different
- dwell on the things you don’t like about the other person or wish were different to better accommodate you
- fixate on the way they ignore how you try to control the way they think, speak, or what they do
The best way to redeem a relationship:
- focus on the pleasure they bring to their Creator as an image bearer
- focus on what they bring to the table and offer to others besides you
- remind yourself of what they have given/done for you
- ask yourself why God has allowed you to be part of their life
- focus on their heart
Beloved, let us love one another, for love is from God, and whoever loves has been born of God and knows God. ~ 1 John 4:7
