About your web of interconnections…

John 13:34 "A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. 35 By this all men will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another." (NIV)

All human beings live in a web of spirit. All people are spiritually connected in unseen ways. Our spiritual interconnections exist because we are all created by God. We all breathe and have our being because God willed for us to be alive. All of us are connected to each other because God is present in all of our lives and through Him we are tied to all other people. If we commit a sin or make a mistake and hurt another person, that sin or mistake can ripple out over the whole world. Like a bacterial plague can spread, so can our actions, both good and bad. If we send out love to others, our love ripples out over the whole world and for generations to come in the future. We all live in this marvelous web of spiritual interconnections. Your life can build up or tear down the life of others and those persons can pass on what you do or do not do. People you do not know all across the globe are affected by your life. How you live your life can determine the destiny of nations. We are not isolated dominoes sitting in the middle of nowhere. We are all in a chain of dominoes. If we fall, others fall. If we stand firm for God, others can stand firm. A most fundamental life-view is to see how you connect and how important you are to Christ and others. We are all inseparably connected and the positive or negative impacts of the decisions we make are felt by millions.
