How can we ever truly connect with others? We start by giving them good information about what’s going on inside of ourselves. When we share that information with trustworthy people, a connection can be made. That exchange of truth is how trust is built within relationships.
Genesis 37:3-5 (NLT) Jacob loved Joseph more than any of his other children because Joseph had been born to him in his old age. So one day Jacob had a special gift made for Joseph—a beautiful robe. 4 But his brothers hated Joseph because their father loved him more than the rest of them. They couldn’t say a kind word to him.
