We Can Be Better

Having worked with children for many years I remember teaching them about working together and co-operation as the old song goes.

Sometimes as adults we need a refresher course .
 It can be difficult when we are set in our own ways to give a little so another can do things their way or communicate
and work out a compromise that works for all involved.

I think we can find scriptures that encourage us to "esteem" one another more highly than ourselves" as well as no greater love than to lay down our lives for a friend.

The encouragement for us today is to see where we might be able to set aside our own wants and desires or work out a compromise that we can walk in the love of God with one another.

1 Corinthians 13:  Without love our works are to no avail. (my paraphrase)
