Tending our relationships is an important spiritual practice and one that requires ongoing maintenance and repair. We all disrupt the peace in our relationships–such is the way of humans relating to other humans. The sign of a healthy relationship is not that it is free of conflict and pain. Rather, the sign of a healthy relationship is how quickly and intentionally we repair the disruption we’ve caused. Mending fences–it’s good spiritual medicine. Guest Worship Leader – Reb.
