scripture

 

Philippians 2:1-4

If you have any encouragement from being united with Christ, if any comfort from his love, if any fellowship with the Spirit, if any tenderness and compassion, then make my joy complete by being like-minded, having the same love, being one in spirit and purpose. Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit, but in humility consider others better than yourselves. Each of you should look not only to your own interests, but also to the interests of others.

Correction does much, but encouragement does more.

thoughts

 

Do I make the people around me better? Do I see that they have fuller potential? Do I help them realize their fuller potential? Do I motivate them towards increases in their faith, trust, and belief in God?

 

prayer

 

Father God, thank You for today.  Thank You for the comfort which we find in knowing You. 

Give us glimpses of You today in all that we do.  May we learn and practice loving You and loving others.

Amen.
