Speaking to me.
Therefore if you have any encouragement from being united with Christ, if any comfort from his love, if any common sharing in the Spirit, if any tenderness and compassion, 2 then make my joy complete by being like-minded, having the same love, being one in spirit and of one mind. 3 Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility value others above yourselves, 4 not looking to your own interests but each of you to the interests of the others. Philippians 2:1-4
I feel lately as if I have lost my joy. Why? Where did it go? This verse says little about joy but I feel like it says a lot about why I lost my joy. Making any sense. My joy is gone because it comes from the Lord. Well My Lord didnt go anywhere...but I did. I want to get my time with God back on track. Putting my time towards him instead of other things. So I can be like minded with Him, love the best I can like Him, have compassion and tenderness towards all the people around me like Him. My joy comes from becoming more Christ like and Im realizing I cant do that if He is not my first priority every day.
Im getting back to what makes my soul sing and my heart joyful. Not just on Sundays or while Im driving to and from work in my car but every minute of my life.
Everlasting joy here I come.
