Philippians Chapter One gives us a prescription for joy. The prescription is to obey. Verse two says to fulfill my joy by being like-minded to Christ. It goes on to describe three ways in which we need to be obedient as Christ was (to the point of death). First, we need to obey even when it is inconvenient to us (verses 3-4). Second, we need to obey when no one is watching (verse 12). This last instruction on obedience is sometimes the hardest to do. We must obey willingly, without disputing or even complaining. Jesus; Others; and then, You - JOY!
