For I have no one else like-minded who will genuinely care about your interests; all seek their own interests, not those of Jesus Christ. (Philippians 2:20-21)
As I read those words, I was thinking this morning, “Am I seeking Jesus’ interests?”
It’s so easy for me to get distracted by things that are trivial or stupid. To waste my time on these things.
But I want to have my Lord’s interests.
And for him, that’s the people he’s put in my life.
That was Timothy’s interest, and that was certainly Paul’s.
So my prayer today is the same as yesterday’s.
Father, give me your Son’s heart for your people. I want his interests to be mine.
