Kingdom Relationships

Jun 15, 2025    Pastor Scott Lothery

A lady in an airport bought a book to read and a package of cookies to eat while she waited for her plane. After she sat down and became gotten engrossed in her book, she noticed that the man one seat away from her opened the package of cookies on the seat between them. The lady couldn’t believe the man’s nerve, but soon the announcement came to board the plane. Once the woman was aboard, still angry at the man’s audacity and puzzling over the incident, she reached into her purse for a tissue and found her still-unopened package of cookies. This story is a reminder that sometimes we read situations and people wrongly. That’s why we need the reminder from the Lord to always be loving in our relationships. Matthew 7 provides us 3 words that fill in what the Lord means when he tells us to love each other.
