Building good relationships

August 25, 2022

“Put yourself aside, and help others get ahead.” Php 2:4 MSG

Paul writes, “Put yourself aside, and help others get ahead. Don’t be obsessed with getting your own advantage. Forget yourselves long enough to lend a helping hand” (v. 4 MSG). That means do these five things: (1) Be genuinely interested in others. “Laugh…when they’re happy; share tears when they’re down” (Ro 12:15 MSG). And you can only do that when you take the time to find out what’s going on in someone else’s world. (2) Be upbeat. “A cheerful heart brings a smile…a sad heart makes it hard to get through the day” (Pr 15:13 MSG).

Don’t dump your problems on others, they have enough of their own. Take them to the Lord in prayer. (3) Be careful what you say, and always say less than you think. “A fool uttereth all his mind: but a wise man keepeth it in” (Pr 29:11). And since how you speak is as important as what you say, always be kind and courteous. (4) Be reliable. The Bible says, “In the last days…men shall be… trucebreakers” (2Ti 3:1-3), but you don’t have to fulfill that prophecy. When you say you will do something, do it. Character is measured by actions, not words. So strive to be a person whose word has meaning. (5) Be an encourager. Barnabas was known as a motivator because he “encouraged the believers” (Ac 11:23 NLT).

Ever notice what happens when you push a kid on a swing? Eventually he starts pumping and doing it himself; he just needed a little help to get going. Even a smile can work wonders. Job said, “When they were discouraged, I smiled…My look of approval was precious to them” (Job 29:24 NLT). Sometimes it’s that simple!
