"And this is my prayer: that your love may abound more and more in knowledge and depth of insight, so that you may be able to discern what is best and may be pure and blameless until the day of Christ, filled with the fruit of righteousness that comes through Jesus Christ—to the glory and praise of God." Philippians 1:9-11
There are so many good things in our world today. There are many good choices....so many things that we can consume our schedules with - so many things we can get involved with - volunteer for - give to.
As moms, we continually feel pulled in all directions, with all kinds of good things. We want to do good things for our kids, good things for our friends, good things for our husbands, and for things that just pull at our hearts. But there is no way we can do it all, is there?
We have to discern what is best - things that aren't just good, but filled with the fruits of righteousness.
What does a good friend do? A good friend prays that their friends love for God will grow - and because of that love they will grow in knowledge and insight and discern what is best. That discernment is supernatural, something to pray for.
What have we learned today about supporting our friends?
