“For we are glad when we are weak and you are strong. Your restoration is what we pray for. For this reason I write these things while I am away from you, that when I come I may not have to be severe in my use of the authority that the Lord has given me for building up and not for tearing down.”
‭‭2 Corinthians‬ ‭13:9-10‬ ‭ESV‬‬

All,

This stands out because Paul says, “Your restoration is what we pray for.”  We all need restoration and God wants to restore us. Sometimes restoration is painful at the time, but always leads to a stronger relationship with Christ. Sometimes, restoration is pure joy due to being rejoined with God. Please pray that we and our friends seek Christ and Christ only today. Please pray for Phil’s group.
