Romans 12:15. Rejoice with them that do rejoice,
Do not be a wet blanket on their joys. If they have good cause for rejoicing, join in it. Help them to sing their hymn of gratitude.
Romans 12:15. And weep with them that weep.
Sympathize with mourners. Take a share of their burden. I really believe that it is easier to weep with them that weep than it is to rejoice with them that do rejoice; for this old flesh of ours begins to envy those who rejoice, whereas it does not so much object to sympathize with those that sorrow. Carry out both commands. "Rejoice with them that do rejoice. Weep with them that weep."
