Please pray for me so God could give me the grace to repent from preaching out of envy and competition and self interest. today the Holy Spirit has convicted me when I was reading the passage:

Some, to be sure, are preaching Christ even from envy and strife, but some also from good will; Philippians 1:15

Prayers for our friend and brother to receive the graces he requires to live his life in a way that is both spiritually satisfying and edifying to others, without occasioning him to envy or boastfulness or any other fault of such nature.
