As followers of Jesus, our actions matter, but Paul reminds us where our actions ought to flow from and what they ought to be for. The source of our transformed lives and actions is not our own tenacious effort, but the very work of God in us.

Paul encourages us that, through Jesus, we can reframe the way we see the world, understanding that our struggles and setbacks can be used by God. Often the first step is lifting our eyes up from our situation to focus on how God is at work.

As Paul, who is writing from prison, begins his letter to the Philippians, he frames his entire life in confidence that no matter what he faces, God has purpose within it. Paul reveals a mindset that we, as believers, want to take hold of.
