Philippians 2:3-4
3 Don't be selfish; don't live to make a good impression on others.
Be humble, thinking of others as better than yourself.
4 Don't think only about your own affairs, but be interested in others, too, and what they are doing.
(NLT)

Sin has its roots in selfishness. In the fall we became selfish, thinking more of ourselves than of others. But Christ is the opposite of us. He thought more about us so much so that He was willing to come to this earth, live as we live, and then die on a cross so that we can be with Him and the Father forever. As Christ followers we are to think of others more than we think of ourselves. Verse 4 does not talk about being a busy body or nosy or having to know what the affairs of others are but that you think about other peoples situations and how you might help them in their struggles or how to pray for them. Be interested in others and what they are doing to be able to build relationships to witness to them the Good News of Jesus. Show them the genuine love of Jesus and how much He cares for them. You are not to be thinking of others affairs so that you can tell others what they are doing or what their struggles are. Love does not gossip. Love cares about the others just as God in Christ cares for you. Our lives are to become a reflection of Jesus Christ.

Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
