Update on Community
This morning, while reading my Bible I got this piece of scripture that really ties in nicely with my post on Community from last night.
I really don’t think I need to say anything more on the subject that what Philippians 2:1-4 (The Message) says about it.
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.
