Therefore if you have any encouragement from being united with Christ, if any comfort from his love, if any common sharing in the Spirit, if any tenderness and compassion, then make my joy complete by being like-minded, having the same love, being one in spirit and of one mind. ~ Philippians 2:1-2 NIV, Holy Bible, eBook (p. 1141). Zondervan. Kindle Edition.
It’s called a community,
“a feeling of fellowship with others
as a result of sharing
common attitudes, interests, and goals.”
But it’s not only sharing qualities with Christ
but expands to other people also united with Christ
having the same love, being one
in spirit and of one mind with our fellows.
What great comfort , having an instant community
with others like-minded,
having the same love,
being one in spirit and of one mind.
Misery loves company but people finding true joy,
experiencing the same intimacy whether a new spirit
or walking a familiar and welcome path, relish the company
of companions who prove to be instant and perpetual
pilgrims on the journey.
God, thank you for ready-made friends and family
to share the joy of your pilgrimage.
