Connecting people

To be somebody is being in the business
Of connecting people and
Allowing yourself to be connected to people
– Constantly reaching out to others
– Constantly breaking down barriers
– Constantly jumping over walls
– Constantly removing borders
Receiving and giving spiritual insight
Leaving comments and responding to e-mails
Talking on the phone and sending SMS messages
Touching, hugging and kissing
As you generously encourage others
Blessing them with your big smile
Accepting them for what they are
Receiving them into your heart
Lifting them up to God in prayer
Allowing God to speak to you
Through those who are different from you

Great people have the capacity
Of being joined in heart with a diversity of people
Each time they enter a covenant relationship
By the uniting Spirit of God
Their capacity for connecting with others is being enlarged

    I’ve resently been thinking of the ‘great people’ in my life and they have the ability to make other people look good in their presence.
