The Promise & The Purpose #17 - Relationship Goals
Our relationships define us - in ways that are obvious and subtle
We define ourselves based on our relationships - a husband, a pastor, a boss - our identity is closely linked to our relationships
Which means, when a relationship is healthy, it has a positive impact on our identify and our definition of ourself
And when the relationship is not healthy - it can have a negative impact
What if, the unhealthyness in the relationship comes not from the other person, but from you. From what YOU say, how YOU act, YOUR attitudes and YOUR behaviours… You will see in todays message, how that also has a negative impact on you - on your sense of identity and your definition of yourself.
Who you are - your identity and sense of self - is affected by how you treat other people just as much as by how other people treat you.
