If I am going to play beautiful music I need to practice. If I am going to play beautiful music in harmony with you, I have to practice my keys and then I need to practice harmonizing my keys with yours. We then practice playing together in harmony! Making beautiful music together!!
One of my basic keys is to be mature relationally and to stay relational, bringing life to my family and others.
So …… today as I meditate and let Jesus bring someone to mind …….. How do I practically relate and be relational to that person?? …… Perhaps if it has been a long time, I need to start by being thankful for that person and speaking a blessing over them for their day and their current life. I can send a note or text of blessing. ……
In other words; I practically do something that starts letting my relational circuits come alive so that I am an actual blessing to the other person. Then, if there is no desired response from that person, I continue to pray for them and I continue to be thankful for that person and I continue to hit the “blessing key” as I make melody in my heart …..
Jesus does this with me. He is always ready to be relational and to stay in relationship with me! I am so thankful that He is that way with me!
