Philippians 1:1-11
Dear RTB’ers,
We now leave the Old Testament for a week to spend time with Paul in his letter to the Philippians – one of my favorites of all of Paul’s epistles. When I think of this letter, I think “joy”; this epistle bespeaks that feeling over and over. We see that even in today’s reading, the beginning of his letter. We see the word, itself, in verse 4, then feel it fully in the love that he has for these Philippians: For God is my witness, how I yearn for you all with the affection of Christ Jesus. (v. 8) Joy and love. That’s what we will be reading for the next week. Enjoy!
Blessings.
