Grace for your spirit
Now I want you to know, brethren, that my circumstances have turned out for the greater progress of the gospel, so that my imprisonment in the cause of Christ has become well known throughout the whole praetorian guard and to everyone else, Philippians 1:12-13
Talk about "blooming where you're planted". The Apostle wrote this letter from his imprisonment in Rome. He reported that the progress of the gospel was great. What a mission field. Even the guards loved it. In fact, at the end of the letter, Paul sends a greeting from all the saints in Caesar's household. Would our letter from Jail sound anything like this? Usually we spend our time thinking about what we would do for the cause of Christ if we could be anywhere but where we are now. God may have placed all of us where we are, to do our best work for Him. Let's quit wishing we are somewhere else, doing something else, and start serving Him right where we are today. Plant God's seed in good soil, add grace, and bloom.
The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit
Philippians 4:23
