2. Their faithfulness Their care

3.  Philippians 1:3-5 I thank my God upon every remembrance of you, (4) always in every prayer of mine making request for you all with joy, (5) for your fellowship in the gospel from the first day until now,

4.  Philippians 4:10 But I rejoiced in the Lord greatly that now at last your care for me has flourished again; though you surely did care, but you lacked opportunity.

5. Something to live for Goals Moving forward

6.  Philippians 1:21 For to me, to live is Christ, and to die is gain.

7.  Not fleshly goals (3:1-7)  Spiritual goals (3:8-11)  Knowledge of Christ (verse8)  Righteousness of Christ (verse9)  Resurrection of Christ (verse10)

8.  Philippians 3:14 I press toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.

9. Looked on the bright side Trusted God Nourished his mind Contentment

10.  Philippians 1:12 But I want you to know, brethren, that the things which happened to me have actually turned out for the furtherance of the gospel,

11.  Philippians 4:6-7 Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; (7) and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.

12.  Philippians 4:8 Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy-- meditate on these things.

13.  Philippians 4:11 Not that I speak in regard to need, for I have learned in whatever state I am, to be content:

14.  People  Their faithfulness  Their care  Purpose  Reason to live  Goals  Moving forward  Peace  Look on the bright side  Trust in God  Nourish the mind  Contentment

15.  Circumstance don’t bring you joy, your response to circumstances brings you joy.  We can rejoice with Paul as he rejoiced in Christ. Let us began today!
