Philippians 1:7-8
7 It is right for me to feel this way about all of you, since I have you in my heart and, whether I am in chains or defending and confirming the gospel, all of you share in God’s grace with me. 8 God can testify how I long for all of you with the affection of Christ Jesus.
Reflection
The second part of Paul’s thanksgiving speaks to the way God is working in their lives in the present: the blessing of sharing each other’s burdens in the gospel. Where have you seen God’s grace at work this week?
