Day 3: Relational Intelligence

God designed us for relationships. From the very beginning, He declared that it is not good for man to be alone (Genesis 2:18). Relational intelligence is about understanding how to cultivate healthy, God-honoring connections with others. This includes friendships, family, and even our interactions with those who challenge us. Jesus modeled this by forming deep, meaningful relationships with His disciples and showing love to those society rejected.

Relational intelligence means choosing love over offense, humility over pride, and unity over division. It requires us to communicate with grace, listen with empathy, and serve with compassion. When we practice this, we create environments where people experience the love of Christ through us. Ask yourself today: Do my relationships reflect the heart of God? Am I intentional about building up those around me?

Prayer:
Father, help me to love others as You have loved me. Grant me wisdom in my relationships so that they may bring honor to You. Teach me to walk in patience, humility, and grace as I interact with others. Amen.
