Yesterday's answer-Philippi Acts 16:16

SCRIPTURE FOR TODAY Philippians 2:19-30

¹⁹ I hope in the Lord Jesus to send Timothy to you soon. I will be happy to learn how you are.²⁰ I have no one else like Timothy, who truly cares for you.²¹ Other people are interested only in their own lives, not in the work of Jesus Christ.²² You know the kind of person Timothy is. You know he has served with me in telling the Good News, as a son serves his father.²³ I plan to send him to you quickly when I know what will happen to me.²⁴ I am sure that the Lord will help me to come to you soon.

²⁵ Epaphroditus, my brother in Christ, works and serves with me in the army of Christ. When I needed help, you sent him to me. I think now that I must send him back to you,²⁶ because he wants very much to see all of you. He is worried because you heard that he was sick.²⁷ Yes, he was sick, and nearly died, but God had mercy on him and me too so that I would not have more sadness.²⁸ I want very much to send him to you so that when you see him you can be happy, and I can stop worrying about you.²⁹ Welcome him in the Lord with much joy. Give honor to people like him,³⁰ because he almost died for the work of Christ. He risked his life to give me the help you could not give in your service to me.

PRAYER FOR TODAY

ALMIGHTY God, heavenly Father, who has blessed us with the joy and care of children; Give us light and strength to train them, that they may love those things that are true and pure and lovely and of good report, following the example of their Jesus Christ.

Amen.

GREATLY BLESSED, HIGHLY FAVORED, IMPERFECT BUT FORGIVEN CHILD OF GOD!!!
