2 Corinthians says:
Our firm decision is to work from this focused center: one man died for everyone...because of this decision, we don't evaluate people by what they have or how they look. We looked at the Messiah that way once and got it all wrong.
Now we look inside, and what we see is that anyone united with the Messiah gets a fresh start, is created new. The old life is gone; a new life burgeons! Look at it! Al this comes from the God who settled the relationship between us and him, and then called us to settle our relationships with each other.
God uses us to persuade men and women to drop their differences and enter into God's work of making things right between them. We're speaking for Christ himself now: become friends with God; he's already a friend with you.Friends with God.
Friends with each other,including relatives and immediate family.
A circle of friendship speaks life into those who settle differences with the love of Christ.
Carry your God-friendship into your circle and lead with love.
