To me “help these women” are the most embarrassing words in the Bible! That’s because two women, Euodia and Syntyche, caused such serious problems in their church that the apostle Paul had to intervene. What did he do?
Paul spoke directly to the two ladies, imploring them to be of the same mind “in the Lord,” that they keep the peace, that they live in love. Paul advised them to put aside their differences for the grander cause of the common good of the church at Philippi and the body of Christ.
Paul praised these two women. Paul recalled how they labored shoulder-to-shoulder with him for the cause of the gospel and had served with many workers for Christ.
Paul called upon others in the church to “help these women.” He encouraged their involvement in helping to solve the problem.
My friend, pray! Pray that you won’t be the cause of any disruptions in your church and that you won’t hinder the work of the church for the cause of Christ. Ask God to help you live in unity.
God, please keep me from being a division in Your body of believers. Help me to bring unity and harmony to those around me. I want to be a peacekeeper in Your name. Amen.

My girls are 13 months apart, which means that during their early years, I often felt like I had twins. I had to really be on my toes-there was little-or-no catching of mistakes I made on the older child so that they wouldn’t be repeated with the younger one. What I was—or wasn’t—doing to love and raise my children was being done to both of them at the same time.
Most of us have no problem memorizing the lyrics to our favorite songs. Sometimes we know them so well, or they're so deeply ingrained in our minds, that they get stuck in our heads. The moment certain songs come on you'll see people rocking in the car or singing along.
