The relationship toolbox

Over the past few weeks Brian’s been sharing thoughts on relationship tools each Sunday. As part of the series he’s been posting clues to the upcoming week’s relationship tool on the blog. Since Brian will be out this week and Josh and I are doing “the sermon” I posed this week’s clues. See if you can guess ::

This Sunday we’ll talk about another relationship tool that like many of the other tools is not only vital to our personal relationships but to the church as a whole. While many of the tools we use in relationships and in church are things “we do.” This tool is something we must “become.”

When I mentioned it to a friend this week we called it “the ultimate tool” and he compared it to a leatherman. I think about as a sweetener or a spice that you add to the main dish and it brings out an entirely new flavor.

When used properly it can fill in for many other tools. It can fill in the gaps or voids that might be missing throughout the day. When used improperly it can wound and hurt and destroy. It’s like taking a knife and digging deep into someones flesh and soul.

Let the guessing game begin.
