Living for Others, Not Self

Romans 15:1-6

So we who are strong have a duty to bear the weaknesses of those who are not strong, rather than please ourselves.

Each of us should please his neighbor and act for his good, thus building him up.

For even the Messiah did not please himself; rather, as the Tanakh says, ‘The insults of those insulting you fell on me.’

For everything written in the past was written to teach us, so that with the encouragement of the Tanakh we might patiently hold on to our hope.

And may God, the source of encouragement and patience, give you the same attitude among yourselves as the Messiah Yeshua had,

so that with one accord and with one voice you may glorify the God and Father of our Lord Yeshua the Messiah.
