Is There any Encouragement from Belonging to Christ?

Is there any encouragement from belonging to Christ? Any comfort from His love? Any fellowship together in the Spirit? Are your hearts tender and compassionate? Then make me truly happy by agreeing wholeheartedly with each other, loving one another, and working together with one mind and purpose. Philippians 2:1-2 NLT.

 

Are you encouraged by being with other Christians? Do you enjoy fellowshipping with them? Are you encouraging to others as you spend time with them? Just as Paul wrote to the church at Philippi, it makes me happy when I see my Christian brothers and sisters loving each other and working together, thinking alike. It just warms my heart on Sunday morning...and other times...to see people hugging on each other and asking about each other’s’ family and how their week has gone. Joy. Love. Love is an action—doing, caring, supporting and encouraging others. Is your heart tender and compassionate? Do you show your love for others—your empathy—your compassion? Are you encouraging others?

 

Prayer ~ Holy Spirit, You show us how to live…how to love…how to encourage. Please continue to give us hope as we share God’s love with others.
