Dear friend, I hope all is well with you and that you are as healthy in body as you are strong in spirit.
3 John 1:2 NLT
https://bible.com/bible/116/3jn.1.2.NLT
This greeting was to a man called Gaius who made an effort to care for travelling preachers. John the apostle had heard about Gaius' hospitality and commending him for it.
We are called to care for the church and its people, especially those who sacrifice for the gospel. They are a vital part of the household of faith.
Good deeds are noticed and receive a reward. In this case, Gaius has been named and God's people down through the centuries appreciate him.
Jesus taught His disciples about being travelling preachers and how they should expect to be cared for. If they were not well received they were to shake the dust off their feet and God would notice. Repayment for good and evil is the Lord's domain and He will repay. We need to let it go. Amen!
