This world can be confusing. We are encouraged not only to be OUR best, but to be THE best. There is much distrust and disagreement, even among Christians.
Paul offers a timely reminder of who God calls us to be and how He calls us to live:
"If you’ve gotten anything at all out of following Christ, if his love has made any difference in your life, if being in a community of the Spirit means anything to you, if you have a heart, if you care— then do me a favor: Agree with each other, love each other, be deep-spirited friends. Don’t push your way to the front; don’t sweet-talk your way to the top. Put yourself aside, and help others get ahead. Don’t be obsessed with getting your own advantage. Forget yourselves long enough to lend a helping hand." (Philippians 1, Peterson's "The Message")
But how can we put this into action?
