Greetings to the Christians

¹ I recommend to you our sister Phoebe, who is a helper in the church in Cenchrea.² I ask you to accept her in the Lord in the way God's people should. Help her with anything she needs, because she has helped me and many other people also.

³ Give my greetings to Priscilla and Aquila, who work together with me in Christ Jesus⁴ and who risked their own lives to save my life. I am thankful to them, and all the non-Jewish churches are thankful as well. ⁵ Also, greet for me the church that meets at their house.

Greetings to my dear friend Epenetus, who was the first person in Asia to follow Christ.

PRAYER FOR TODAY

Father, from the Biblical story of Job’s unequaled sufferings emerges one of the most radiant and hopeful promises that I can apply to my life, “I know that my Redeemer lives!” Though my heart and my flesh may fail, You are my strength and my portion forever. The troubles that seem larger than life itself lose their magnitude in comparison to knowing that in the end I will see You myself with my own eyes. What glorious anticipation fills my heart as Your overcoming Spirit leads me through the trials of this day, the road marked by suffering! It is not by my might, nor by my power but by Your Spirit that I find You to be the anchor in the storms that assail me. Amen.

LIVE SIMPLY! LOVE GENEROUSLY! CARE DEEPLY! SPEAK KINDLY! LEAVE THE REST WITH GOD!!
