Romans 12:15

Living In Love

¹⁴ Give blessing and not curses to those who are cruel to you. ¹⁵ Take part in the joy of those who are glad, and in the grief of those who are sorrowing. ¹⁶ Be in harmony with one another. Do not have a high opinion of yourselves, but be in agreement with common people. Do not give yourselves an air of wisdom.
