 "Agree To Disagree"
 
Philippians 2:1-2 So does belonging to Christ help you in any way? Does His love comfort you at all? Do you share anything in common because of the Holy Spirit? Has Christ ever been gentle and loving toward you? If any of these things have happened to you, then agree with one another. Have the same love. Be one in spirit and in the way you think and act.

I think all of us who know Christ have seen His love, comfort, help, and gentleness. Paul is saying if we have seen this from Christ in "any way" we are called to respond by being in unity or agreement (of the same mind). Naturally, we will have differences in our opinions, but we can have these differences and still be in agreement in the things of Christ. Agreeing in our purpose and in our servitude.

We have seen men of God attacked recently for not responding to situations the way others thought they should. Let us keep lifting these men of faith up in prayer along with each other. Even if they worship in ways different from us we can be in agreement in the proclaiming of the gospel and furthering of His kingdom.

Humbly in Him,
Angie Wahl
