“My prayers for you are full of praise to God as I give him thanks for you with great joy! I’m so grateful for our union”Philippians 1:3 TPT
Paul planted the church in Philippi on his second missionary journey. This was the first church in Europe. Once a Greek capital it was in the time of writing a Roman occupied city, with millitary and political influence.
The church in Philippi was the strongest supporter of Paul. His letter to them was without rebuke and full of praise.
Do you have people in your life that support and encourage you? If you do you are blessed. I have a home church who always welcomes me and if I need prayer I can ask them for prayer. When I am back in Australia they bless me with prayers and have been supportive on two occasions with finance. A recent visitor to Nepal was a blessing to me and another colleague. She brought finance, love and friendship.
I pray for my church and friends daily. May the Lord bless them indeed. I pray for my family daily as well.
This scripture encourages to be thankful and grateful for those at home in Australia. I am also very grateful for my Christian friends here in Nepal. Life here would be more difficult without them.
Gratitude and praise are welcome by the Lord! Let us practise them today. Amen!
