10 I rejoiced greatly in the Lord that at last you renewed your concern for me. Indeed, you were concerned, but you had no opportunity to show it. 11 I am not saying this because I am in need, for I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances. 12 I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want. 13 I can do all this through him who gives me strength.
14 Yet it was good of you to share in my troubles. 15 Moreover, as you Philippians know, in the early days of your acquaintance with the gospel, when I set out from Macedonia, not one church shared with me in the matter of giving and receiving, except you only; 16 for even when I was in Thessalonica, you sent me aid more than once when I was in need. 17 Not that I desire your gifts; what I desire is that more be credited to your account. 18 I have received full payment and have more than enough. I am amply supplied, now that I have received from Epaphroditus the gifts you sent. They are a fragrant offering, an acceptable sacrifice, pleasing to God. 19 And my God will meet all your needs according to the riches of his glory in Christ Jesus.
20 To our God and Father be glory for ever and ever. Amen.
I am not feeling the best this morning. I am tired, in pain and my allergies are acting up. I have no patience this morning. I have to get over this and on with my day. Steven got on the van great again this morning. I was a little worried as his regular aide has to be out the rest of he week. But he walked some to the van and then had to run. Oh happy!
I thank God for all the blessings he has given me. I have such a wonderful, loving and supportive husband. A beautiful, loving son. A great family that loves me and is there no matter what. I have a spiritual family that has my back and shows this family unending love. I have friends all over that are concerned for not only me but my hubby and son as well. They show their love to us in so many ways.
It is the strength of Christ that has me moving this morning. I would much rather go back to bed and not go into the Master's Hands this morning. But, I refuse to let the devil keep me from the blessings God has in store for me today. Being up there, I know if will happen many times over. I guess I need to make sure and have a lot of change for the blessings jar!
Hoping for an early evening tonight and getting better sleep. Oh well, not the end of the world if I don't.
Take care and God Bless,
Sherri
