rejoice with others

Here is a test for purity of heart.
 
"Who is the happiest of men? He who values the merits of others, and in their pleasure takes joy, even as though t'were his own." - Johann Wolfgang von Goethe.
 
Are you able to rejoice with others? For me this is a place of spiritual challenge. I find bitterness in my heart when I have instructed people in an area, they seem to reject it, and then later God blesses them in that particular area and they act like it's new. A sad person I am when I get like that. The good news is that I recognize it and gradually I am seeing victory over it. Continue to pray for me.
