For I have come to have much joy and comfort in your love, because the hearts of the saints have been refreshed through you, brother (Philemon 1:7).
Wouldn’t it be wonderful to hear those words spoken to you? We should strive to be a blessing to others.
You never know what people are struggling with from day to day. A kind word, a smile, or some testimony of God’s blessing might make all the difference in a person’s outlook. It is good to let your light shine!
Therefore if there is any encouragement in Christ, if there is any consolation of love, if there is any fellowship of the Spirit, if any affection and compassion, make my joy complete by being of the same mind, maintaining the same love, united in spirit, intent on one purpose. Do nothing from selfishness or empty conceit, but with humility of mind regard one another as more important than yourselves; do not merely look out for your own personal interests, but also for the interests of others. Have this attitude in yourselves which was also in Christ Jesus (Philippians 2:1-5).
