Romans 1215. Yes. Rejoice with those who rejoice and weep with those who weep. What a profound

verse when you think about that, you know, that calling to enter in with others. And I think

diametrically opposed to the human nature in every way imaginable. You know, people are weeping and

we're in a good mood or we're happy. It's like, you know,

Paul's call isn't when you feel like rejoicing, find others that are rejoicing or when you're

weeping, but it's like, hey, enter into people's lives. Yeah, you can't sit this one out. Right. You can't

say I'm an introvert or um you know I I haven't

experienced what you're experiencing so maybe you should talk to somebody else or you

should somebody else should sit with you rather you know there's no way out of it

this is not a personality preference that this is a call to every person who

names the name of Christ.

You sit and you laugh with those who are laughing, rejoicing, right?

And you weep with those who weep.

There's no sitting this out.

This is the, this is where things are difficult and hard for sure.

But you can't take a pass on this.

Weeping and empathy should not take us away from truth.

And so you think like rejoice for those who rejoice,

we would know immediately distinctly

that that does not mean rejoice when someone's rejoicing over sin.

We wouldn't rejoice with them, right?

We would stop at that.
