What is your Approach to Establishing Relationships?
When you interact with people, what do you see, their positive potential or their negativism? Do you consider it more important to help them rid themselves of negative qualities or to help them develop their positive qualities? Your own outlook and frame of reference says a more about who you are than it who they are.
Do you approach life as an optimist or a pessimist? If you maintain you are a realist, you’re probably a pessimist living in denial.
The Gospel is good news. The Bible says that God works all things together for good for those who love him. Where there’s pain and sickness, the gospel is an opportunity for healing. Where there’s sin, the gospel is an opportunity for grace, mercy, repentance, and redemption. And we’re told in scripture to love our enemies and to do good to those that despite-fully use us.
In fact, Believers should be so optimistically hopeful that we make the people around us crazy trying to figure out why we're so positive in negative surroundings.
