Romans 15:2
Each of us should please his neighbor for his good, to build him up.
Wow. We live in an America who is full of self indulgence. We don't want to help our neighbor because we are caught up in envy wondering how they just bought a new boat! Our minds are filled of thoughts on how we can possibly get ahead of the Jones' next door.
This verse urges us to do the opposite. It is telling us we need to walk up to Mr Jones and offer to help him clean his new boat!
I have neighbors in my subdivision that I have never spoken to! Next time I see them walking down the street I should think Romans 15:2!
Do you have any neighbors you should build up?
