Philippians 2:1-4 Therefore if there is any consolation in Christ, if any comfort of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any affection and mercy, 2 fulfill my joy by being like-minded, having the same love, being of one accord, of one mind. 3 Let nothing be done through selfish ambition or conceit, but in lowliness of mind let each esteem others better than himself. 4 Let each of you look out not only for his own interests, but also for the interests of others.
"It's better to get more excited about what others are doing than what we are doing. Do I spend time thinking about "the interests of others"? Do I get as excited about what God is doing in and through a friend as I do about what He is doing through me? Do I long to see others grow in grace and find success, though it may have been my efforts that made them prosper?"
~David Roper~
"Love feels the sorrows others feel,
It longs to give support,
And love is quick to take delight
In every good report."
~D. De Haan~
"A life filled with love for the Lord and for others is a fulfilling life."

Heavenly Father,
Help me to delight in others joys and in the ways You use them and bless them. Show me how to share in these things with them. In Jesus' name, Amen.
