The one thing that took me a long time to truly grasp the complete concept of is relationships. Sure, I have/ had plenty of relationships in my life that matter to me. Some relationships were just for a season and others have been for longer periods, and I know that there are some that will be for a lifetime.
But one thing that I have been learning that there is one relationship that is the most important. And if I don't learn how to have a healthy relationship with that one, then I will never make it with any of the others. That is my relationship with God. His relationship characterizes how I treat every other person in my life. It's funny how I often put Him behind others, or downplay Him.
But one thing I know, the stronger my relationship is with Him, the stronger my relationships are with my wife, my sons, my mom & dad, my brother and sisters, my friends. If I continually make Him first the easier it is to communicate, the easier it is to love, the more patience I have. It is amazing how He is so powerful that my relationship with Him can have a positive affect on all of the other relationships in my life.
I am excited to make him priority #1 in my life. Without Him, I know that I wouldn't have as many positive relationships in my life.
About Me
- Ricardo
- I am a Husband, Father, Uncle, Son, and Friend. I am a typical "guy", down to earth, and extremely positive. The continuing expansion of myself is characterized and motivated by the relationships in my life that I cherish starting with Jesus, My beautiful and awesome wife Emily, my two sons: Rocky (Ricardo II) and Romi (Roman). Family is important to me and without them I would not be the man that I am today. I am thankful for all of things that God has chosen to bless with me and give all the glory and honor to him!
