Don’t “Burn the Bridge”

Don’t “Burn the Bridge”

The Bible encourages us to: “Live in Peace with each other.”  This requires intentionality to “build a bridge” (relationally) with others.


You will notice that the bridge in the background photo is an impressive suspension foot-bridge. You might also notice that the season is cold and bleak;  the shadows are long;  the leaves are gone from the trees, and all seems to be barren.  Sometimes our relationships with others might feel this way!  It might seem that the relationship is cold, bleak, and barren.  But hang in there anyway!  Don’t “burn the bridge.”


“Live in peace with each other.” – 1 Thessalonians 5:13
“A gentle answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger.” – Proverbs 15:1
