Relationship is better than being “right.” How many - TopicsExpress

Relationship is better than being “right.” How many arguments and disagreements have been fueled by the little voice inside our heads reemphasizing that we are right and we need to prove it? This can be driven by several things: 1. A lack of true identity—I need to get a rush from being right; being superior. 2. Self-accusation—telling me I’m not enough on my own unless others approve of me. I’m blinded to others’ opinions and perspectives. Truth has to be paired with mercy. Even if I am right, slamming the truth down someone’s throat really doesnt cultivate any kind of relationship. It also doesnt make people like me or respect me more. People listen and respect those who care about them. Truth is intended to be our servant, not our accuser. I may have all of the facts to prove a case, but using those facts to berate others into seeing my point of view doesnt represent the heart of God. God intended for us to have authentic, deep relationships based in love. God can teach us how to receive our fulfillment and identity through Him so that we don’t need others’ approval. Then we can have real relationships which are much more valuable and beneficial than always having the last word. You know who is right all of the time? God. So we don’t have to be. This is my commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you. John 15:12
