We only become what we are designed to be when we are in covenant with people, allowing the challenges to our comfort to expose  injuries and weaknesses. Our design comes into focus as we deal with the exposure in that environment of commitment, intention and most-importantly two-way grace.  Here we realize,  “I need to get what I want.” is self-centered baby talk and not the speech of a growing adult.

“I need help learning to give.” is adult talk. It positions you to heal and mature, give and receive.
