-Philippians 2:1-2
I love this chapter so much. Paul is in effect saying 'the attitude of mind I have been urging on you is exactly that of Christ himself.' Christ who provides our encouragement, comfort of love, and fellowship of the Spirit. Who fills us with all joy. Be unified in Him. Keep the bond of love by being of one mind (for the Lord). Not warring against one other. Not complaining about each other or being resentful over the silliest things. Treat others as more important than yourself, consider their needs first. Have a spirit of meekness and peace; gentleness; patience; building one another up in love! Thinking not on self, but on Christ, who emptied himself. Who came not to be served, but to serve. So beautiful.
