Common Ground

To each is given the manifestation of the Spirit for the common good. - 1 Corinthians 12:7
In a recent meeting, there was some disagreement over a particular planned event. We placed God first by starting in pray and asked the Holy Spirit to guide our thoughts, words, and actions all for the glory of God. And you know…it worked. Compromise was achieved and all parties agreed on a path forward.
It is not surprising when we keep our eyes on the prize- Jesus Christ and involve Him in every meeting and conversation, common ground through compromise can be achieved. We gave
Glory to God for softening our hearts through the power of the Holy Spirit. It is amazing what can be accomplished when you do not care who gets the credit. We work for God, so let us give Him all the glory and honor. It is His anyway.
Nobody wins until we all win!
