Too often, we spend a significant amount of time trying to obtain things to feel joy. It’s a futile cycle because lasting joy does not come from things.

While we all fall short, Paul reminds us it is not only possible for humans to sanctify their thinking, it is also something they should strive to do!

We are incapable of being like Jesus in our strength; however, with God’s power inside us, it is possible to live a life fulfilling God’s purpose.

As we read chapter two of Philippians, we will learn how joy is possible even when dealing with challenging people.
