As believers, it's good to be united in thoughts having unity of mind going forward in the one purpose sharing God's light never be blind Having a spirit of kind sympathy showing compassion to those in need being the one God wants you to be this is such a privilege planted HIs seed God has set in believers His own heart implanted there His own spirit of love a love looking out for all the Lord's own for having God's love is always enough In every believer is a heart bathed in truth but it needs planted with water every day the water sprinkled all over in God's word so showing tenderness of heart to stay The final requirement is a humble mind one who is filled with meekness so clear as well as a mind that's truly humble to always bless knowing God's ever near ("Finally, all of you, have unity of mind, sympathy, brotherly love, a tender heart, and a humble mind.") 1 Peter 3: 8 (ESV)
