Hi, this is Joel and Victoria. Thanks for listening to our podcast and thanks for supporting the ministry.

If you enjoy today's message, why don't you be a blessing and share it with a friend.

We appreciate you and pray for God's very best in your life.

We honor you and we bless you with our lives. You may be seated.

You know, I want to talk to us a little bit about relationships

and how to bring value to our relationships. You know, we're going to be around people all the time,

and we're going to have people in our life that are close to us. And some of those relationships

can bring us great joy and satisfaction. And sometimes

some of those same relationships can be a source of frustration and they can be a challenge in our

life. We've got to learn to balance the two extremes. Have you ever been in love with someone

a moment and then they say something you don't

like and you're mad at them? That doesn't make sense. We got fickle feelings. We've got to learn

how to balance these things called relationships and learn to bring out the best in each other

and enjoy relationships.

Listen to what the Apostle Paul teaches us in 1st Corinthians, 13.5.

He says, love keeps no records of wrongs.

Love keeps no records of wrongs.

You see, the Apostle Paul was telling us, if we're going to balance out our relationships

and we're going to enjoy them, we're not going to be frustrated and irritated, we're going

to have to learn to keep records of the good things.

We're going to have to learn to find the good in our relationship, the good in the people that

we are connected to.
