since you are having the same struggle that you once saw me have and which you hear that I am still having.

fill up my cup of joy by living in harmony, by fostering the same disposition of love, your hearts beating in unison, your minds set on one purpose.

Keep on fostering the same disposition that Christ Jesus had.

Finally, my brothers, continue to be glad that you are in union with the Lord. I am not tired of writing you the same things over and over: it means your safety.
