In the last few weeks I have learned a few things…including some things new about honour.

It seems to me that honour has multiple directions in its nature.
You can receive it. You can give. You can witness it. You can benefit from it. You can be encouraged by it.
It reaches in all directions and can permeate all around.

You see, honour isn’t something to be scared of or feel obligated to give.
It is something that should flow naturally in our Christian experience.

As we spent time at the farewell events hosted for us, we experienced honour.
It caused something in my heart to want to give honour.
To honour God and what he has done so far in my life.
To honour leaders over me for their support and guidance.

Honour is something that should be part of each of lives.
We should find every opportunity to honour each other and of course our God.

Romans 12:10 simply says this...
Honour one another above yourselves

Honour should flow from us, to us and all around us.
Maybe honour should even be like an atmosphere that surrounds us just as much as the natural atmosphere we live in already?

Something to think about…
