Don’t allow self-promotion to hide in your hearts, but in authentic humility, put others first and view them as more important than yourselves. Abandon every display of selfishness. Have a greater concern for what matters to others instead of your own interests. Consider the example that Jesus, the Anointed One, has set before us. Let His mindset become your motivation.”

From this realm of sweet harmony, God releases His eternal blessing, the promise of life forever!”
