Genuine Friendship December 10, 2019




Romans 12:10 New International Version (NIV)
10 Be devoted to one another in love. Honor one another above yourselves.

"He who toots his own horn plays in a very small band!" A very selfish part of us wants all attention and appreciation to be focused on what we have done, sacrificed, and accomplished. One of the signs of spiritual maturity that Paul lists here, however, is a devotion to others who are our fellow Christians. This means that we genuinely rejoice when others are honored. In fact, we are even more interested in honoring others than in receiving honor ourselves.

Thought for today: Can people count on me to be a devoted friend?
