Communication

Who hasn't fallen into the communication twilight zone? That Lifetime movie? You're having a conversation with someone, be it your mate, friend, co-worker, etc. Communication seems to be at an all time high until "the wrong word" slips out of someone's mouth. All of a sudden, the conversation starts to heat up like a nuclear reactor headed for a meltdown. Seemingly powerless to stop it, we find ourselves arguing or ever worse, not talking at all.

Communication is not easy. Yet communication is so important to relationships, it is what fuels them. Lack of communication has kept some relationships in a stagnant position for years. It takes good communication to keep a relationship moving forward for a lifetime. People try to make communication sound so simple, so easy, but when we break it down, communication is not a science; it is an art. It is not black and white. It is not always logical, and you certainly cannot reduce successful communication to a simple equation. Communication is an art, filled with fine lines and shades of meaning.

The second part of this series, I will cover just what Jesus, the only perfect communicator has to say on this subject. Stay posted.

Strive for Perfection Every Day. Seek God First, and Prosper.
