Connection

Humans are made for connection. That is what we see all the way back in Genesis. When God looked at the creation, everything was good, EXCEPT for the fact that man was alone. Connection is to make contact and to create a space where there is a feeling that you are seen, heard and accepted by another person.

According to research, people with strong connections are happier, healthier and better able to cope with the stresses of life.

Connection leads to dialogue and dialogue leads to relationship.

Exercise:

Think separately for a moment about each of these connections:

You – God

You – loved ones

You – world

How would you describe the connection?

How do you feel about the connection?

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, I ask for the grace of connection and dialogue in my relationships. Let me glorify You. In the Name of Jesus, Amen.
