Therefore, my brothers and sisters, you whom I love and long for, my joy and crown, stand firm in the Lord in this way, dear friends!
Philippians 4:1 NIV
Therefore...because of Ch3, because our citizenship is in heaven, because we are found in Christ, because of that stand firm in your faith!
But just in case you missed it, let me see how many ways I can tell you that I love you...
Dear friends
My crown
My joy
You who I long for
My brothers & sisters
You who I love.
What a greeting.
Unmistakable, & unmissable.
Perhaps today there's someone in your life who needs to hear from you in an unmissable & unmistakable way that you love them.
Who is that person?
Let them know now, today.

...four men arrived carrying a paralyzed man on a mat. They couldn't bring him to Jesus because of the crowd, so they dug a hole through the roof above his head. Then they lowered the man on his mat, right down in front of Jesus... Mark 2:3-4 NLT Great account of inventiveness and determination to get their friend to see Jesus. Love this. Do you wonder about the back story? Are these the same 4 people who bring this man food? Take him to the toilet every day. Clean him up. Does he live with one of them? Are they family? Are there whole families or groups of people in the background who have supported and cared for this man? A group of children who grew up seeing their parents love in action? Probably. Healing Help Hope These things are found in community. These 4 guys are the heroes here. The upfront people. One day it will be interesting to see who the background heroes are. #loveinaction #community #inthistogether #walkingeachotherhome #gospelofmark
