Relationships don't just happen; they are built. And they are the best part of life when they are built on the love of God.

Relationships…talk about the ultimate challenge in life.

Learning to get along with another human being is just plain hard. It is an experience filled with heartache and pain and personal turmoil.

Your beliefs get tested, and all your inner struggles and insecurities get revealed.

Yet, you power through because you know relationships are the best part of life.

You want to care and to be cared for. You want to know and to be known. You want to love and to be loved.

3. Truth
4. Protection
5. Trust
