Everything we need comes from God.

Everything we need comes to us from God through other people.

The number of healthy relationships that we have dictates how much of what we need we actually receive from God.

Our pride is our biggest problem in having healthy relationships, and in seeking healthy relationships.

We all tend to think, “I am God’s favorite and He will give me what I need direct, no middle man needed.”

We all tend to be passive in pursuing healthy relationships, but that lack of diligence in pursuing genuine friends is a major growth inhibitor.

The book of Proverbs is full of principles on how to have a growing number of relationships that are growing in intimacy.

A biblical friend is one who will admonish and correct you when you sin or get off-track.

When we are humble in our relationships and will hear, learn, and respond to their counsel God will give them the word’s we need; believe that!
