Words I’ve Been Living By Lately ...

Current mood: tired

Philippians is my favorite book of the Bible. Having finished 2 Timothy a few days ago, my favorite book came to mind, and this is what I started reading. It is so timely and good that I've read it daily for like the past three days. May it spur you on to hope and good works in Christ.

Philippians 2:1-5 -- 1
If you've gotten anything at all out of following Christ, if his love has made any difference in your life, if being in a community of the Spirit means anything to you, if you have a heart, if you care - 2 then do me a favor: Agree with each other, love each other, be deep-spirited friends. 3 Don't push your way to the front; don't sweet-talk your way to the top. Put yourself aside, and help others get ahead. 4 Don't be obsessed with getting your own advantage. Forget yourselves long enough to lend a helping hand. 5 Think of yourselves the way Christ Jesus thought of himself.
