We who are powerful need to be patient with the weakness of those who don’t have power, and not please ourselves. Each of us should please our neighbors for their good in order to build them up. Christ didn’t please himself, but, as it is written, The insults of those who insulted you fell on me. Whatever was written in the past was written for our instruction so that we could have hope through endurance and through the encouragement of the scriptures. May the God of endurance and encouragement give you the same attitude toward each other, similar to Christ Jesus’ attitude. That way you can glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ together with one voice. (Romans 15:1-6, CEB)
We need to be on the lookout for helping others.
Life is not about pleasing ourselves, it is about helping and pleasing others.
When we have power we do not use that for our own gain or the gain of those who can help us, but for the gain of those who can’t repay or help us and need someone to lift them up.
We need to give to improve the life of all.
Loving People. Loving God.
