The Lord is near:G1097G5216G1933G1097G3956G444G2962G14516Never worry about anything.

Then the God of peace will be with you.G5023G3739G3129G2532G3129G2532G3880G2532G191G2532G1492G1722G1698G4238G2532G2316G1515G2071G3326G5216

The Philippians’ Gifts

10Now I rejoice in the Lord greatly, because once again you have shown your concern for me. Of course, you were concerned for me but you did not have an opportunity to show it.G1161G5463G1722G2962G3171G3754G2235G4218G5426G330G5228G1700G330G1909G3739G5426G2532G5426G1161G17011I am not saying this because I am in any need, for I have learned to be content in whatever situation I am in.G3756G3004G3754G2596G5304G1063G1473G3129G1722G3739G1510G1511G84212I know how to be humble, and I know how to prosper. In each and every situation I have learned the secret of being full and of going hungry, of having too much and of having too little.G1161G1492G5013G2532G1492G4052G1722G3956G2532G1722G3956G3453G2532G5526G2532G3983G2532G4052G2532G530213I can do all things through him who strengthens me.G2480G3956G1722G5547G3588G1743G316514Nevertheless, it was kind of you to share my troubles.G4133G2573G4160G4790G3450G234715You Philippians also know that in the early days of the gospel, when I left Macedonia, no church participated with me in the matter of giving and receiving except for you.G1161G5210G5374G1492G2532G3754G1722G746G2098G3753G1831G575G3109G3762G1577G2841G3427G1519G3056G1394G2532G3028G1508G5210G344116Even while I was in Thessalonica, you provided for my needs not once, but twice.G3754G2532G1722G2332G3992G2532G530G2532G1364G1519G3427G553217It is not that I am looking for a gift. No, I want to see that you receive the fruit that increases to your benefit.G3756G3754G1934G1390G235G1934G2590G4121G1519G5216G305618I have been paid in full and have more than enough. I am fully supplied, now that I have received from Epaphroditus what you sent - a fragrant aroma, a sacrifice acceptable and pleasing to God.G1161G568G3956G2532G4052G4137G1209G3844G1891G3844G5216G3744G2175G2378G1184G2101G231619And my God will fully supply your every need according to his glorious riches in the Messiah Jesus.G1161G3450G2316G4137G3956G5216G5532G2596G846G4149G1722G1391G1722G5547G242420Glory belongs to our God and Father forever and ever!
