God gave us relationships as a blessing, yet navigating them can be challenging. When they go well, they can be inspiring and motivating, but when they don’t, they can be perplexing and hurtful.
No matter what type of relationship challenge you may be facing, Bible can help you handle it. God can restore relationships because He can do anything.
To restore our relationships we should pray hard and rely more on God’s word. We should surround ourselves with wisdom and godly advice which we will get from the Bible. God commands us to love, but we cannot accomplish it without His grace. If we do not seek God and his words no one else can, either, help us through our relationship struggles.
When we look to Jesus Christ as an example, He will show us how to find a way to mend our struggles in our relationship with love.
