Philippians 2: 1-2

Note: For the Summer we are reprinting some devotions that ran back when we were getting this site up and running. Hopefully this is new content to you, and we will get back into writing fresh devotions as our schedule allows.



1If 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, 2then make my joy complete by being like-minded, having the same love, being one in spirit and purpose.


I think this is Paul's way of saying, stop complaining and get along! Here he says, if you've ever gotten anything out of being a Christian, if the words that I've spoken to you have ever made any sense, then do me a favor and be nice to each other. Paul was a little nicer about it, but really when you think about it, God has done so much for us, we need to be willing to sacrifice ourselves for Him. Have you been fighting with anyone recently? Maybe it's time to start being friends again.

About These Devotions

If you're reading this, it means that God has a plan for your life. But in order to figure out what it is, we've got to spend time listening to what He has to say. These devotions are meant to be an appetizer to get you interested in studying the Bible for yourself. They are a collection from the youth leadership of Reality Student Ministries. If you like them, subscribe either through RSS or e-mail in the sidebar, and then leave us a note and tell us what you thought.

Thanks,

-Jeff-
