Grace for your spirit August 12, 2008

For I have no one else of kindred spirit who will genuinely be concerned for your welfare. Philippians 2:20

This is the apostle Paul’s description of Timothy. He sends this letter to encourage the church at Philippi about Timothy’s arrival. What a resume! He has a kindred spirit. He gets along with people, and is genuinely interested in your problems and your welfare. That is exactly the kind of person every church needs. This kind of person will further the gospel and make every effort to build up all disciples. Any one of us could be a disciple just like Timothy. When we decide to rekindle the spirit that is within us, this will be the results. Just a few of these kinds of people could transform any church. Let’s all decide to be one.

The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit
Philippians 4:23
