Christian Devotional – May 30, 2012

VERSE:
Matthew 5:24–leave your offering there before the altar and go; first be reconciled to your brother, and then come and present your offering.

TRUTH:
Relationships matter. Our relationship first and foremost with God sets the example for how we should be relating to everyone else in our life. And, the way we relate to all the others in our life is a direct reflection of how we are relating to God. Do we hold grudges? Are we unforgiving? These attitudes will affect our relationship with God. We cannot overlook or ignore our relationships with others.

RESPONSE:
Lord, I pray You will show me my relationships with others through Your eyes. Help me see if there are any changes I need to make or reconciliations I need to initiate. I want my relationships with others to be a positive reflection of my relationship with You.
