Wish I’d Written This About You

Wish I’d written this.

About you.

Because it’s true.

Thank you for reading my blog and for commenting here or on FB or wherever and even when we see each other.

Now then: again, wish I’d written this —

Every time you cross my mind,

I break out in exclamations of thanks to God.

Each exclamation is a trigger to prayer.

I find myself praying for you with a glad heart.

I am so pleased that you have continued on

believing and proclaiming God’s Message,

from the day you heard it right up to the present.

There has never been the slightest doubt in my mind

that the God who started this great work in you

would keep at it and bring it

to a flourishing finish

on the very day Christ Jesus appears.  

— St. Paul, Philippians 1:3-6,
