Hello! and happy good Tuesday to all of us, GUYS. Our "food for the soul" today:
THE GOOD NEWS (18 October 2016)
"Do your best to come to me quickly. You must know that Demas has deserted me for the love of this world: he returned to Thessalonica. Crescens has gone to Galatia and Titus to Dalmatia. Only Luke remains with me. Get Mark and bring him with you, for he is a useful helper in my work. I sent Tychicus to Ephesus.
Bring with you the cloak I left at Troas, in Carpos' house and also the scrolls, especially the parchments. Alexander the metalworker has caused me great harm. The LORD will repay him for what he has done. Distrust him for he has been very much opposed to our preaching.
At my first hearing in court no one supported me; all deserted me. May the LORD not hold it against them. But the LORD was at my side, giving me strength to proclaim the Word fully, and let all the pagans hear it. So I was rescued from the lion's mouth." - 2 Timothy 4:9-17
(Preach the Word: this is Paul's last advice. It must be the first concern of the Church and of any church leader.
