"17- Yea, and if I be offered upon the sacrifice and service of your faith, I joy, and rejoice with you all. 19- But I trust in the Lord Jesus to send Timotheus shortly unto you, that I also may be of good comfort, when I know your state." (Philippians 2:17, 19 KJV)
No one will live and not have to go through sorrow or pain. We will always have to go through something that will shape or reshape our lives. All of us will someday be a victim or a victors. A lot of those around us may have been through to a situation where we never even been in.
Paul and Epaphroditus suffered with sickness, problems, and persecution as they lived their lives, when they believed in God and served Him faithfully. We need to have a positive attitude and believe in God and in ourselves. Apostle Paul, Timothy and Epaphroditus were not selfish when they showed their unselfish service to God and for the brethren. They lived, believed and served God. The Bible says; "20- For I have no man likeminded, who will naturally care for your state. 21- For all seek their own, not the things which are Jesus Christ's." (Philippians 2:20, 21 KJV)-By Ely Roque Sagansay
