Now we ask you to respect those who work hard among you, who are over you in the Lord and who admonish you. Hold them in the highest regard in love because of their work. Live in peace with each other. 1 Thessalonians 5:12-13 "You have always heard that a good relationship is when each person is willing to give 50-50. That is not true. A good relationship is when each person is willing to give 100% to each other, and to God. Pastor Pat Aman A man's wisdom gives him patience; it is to his glory to overlook an offense. Proverbs 19:11 Unlike jigsaw puzzles, people don't always fit together perfectly. Everyone's personality has unique ins and outs. Some are busy, get-it-done types, for whom people are a means to an end. Others are more laid-back; they talk about getting something done, but never quite get to it. To them, people and relationships are the end. When these two types get together, they can despair over the other's failure, blind to their own. Or they can see those conflicts as opportunities for their own growth. In my family, cartoons help us celebrate our differences and help us be patient with one another. Any comic strip that hits home is clipped and posted on the refrigerator for laughs. Then I paste it in a notebook, kept with the family photo albums, for repeat laughs and long-term reminders of how human we all really are. Jeanne Zornes
