"And when Saul had come to Jerusalem, he tried to join the disciples; but they were afraid of him, and did not believe that he was a disciple.
But Barnabas took him and brought him to the apostles. And he declared to them how he had seen the Lord on the road, and that He had spoken to him, and how he had preached boldly at Damascus in the name of Jesus.
So he was with them at Jerusalem, coming in and going out."
Acts 9:26-28 (NKJV)
Relationships are valuable, and with the right relationships we can accomplish great things. We all have some relationships: relationships with people we work with, relationships with people in our church, relationships with people where we live, and relationships with people in our family. Good relationships help us grow and develop, and we can even learn things from negative relationships that we have had, although we need to cultivate the good relationships and avoid the bad ones.
Relationships are important, because they are ways for us to connect with others who we can help, and who can also help us. Relationships are a key in our life, because relationships can benefit us in the areas of growing and developing in our personal and spiritual lives. Relationships are important for several reasons, and we see the value of relationships in many places in the Bible. A great example of the benefits of good relationships is seen in the life of the Apostle Paul in Acts 9.
In Acts 9, Saul, who later became known as the Apostle Paul, wanted to join the disciples, but they were afraid of him and did not trust him. Paul was not able to make the connection himself, but then another disciple, Barnabas, helped connect Paul with the disciples. Paul had the right intentions, but was unsuccessful in what he tried to do, until someone else helped him bridge the gap. We need to develop the relationships we have and be open to new relationships, because sometimes a relationship will help us connect to someone, or something else, that is vital to God's plan in our life.
