01-06-12…Read Philippians 4

Philippians 4

The goal of 1 Chapter a Day is not to fill your brain with content. But, rather to look for God to drop a “nugget of truth” into your heart from each reading. This should be something you can apply to your life. The Bible is not simply a book to be learned…it is a book to be lived!

1 Chapter a Day’s take on Philippians 4

Verse 1 says: “My dear, dear friends! I love you so much. I do want the very best for you. You make me feel such joy, fill me with such pride. Don’t waver. Stay on track, steady in God.” The Message

This verse reminds me of the value of GREAT friends. Paul’s friends were such an encouragement to him. And he was an encouragement to them. He compelled them to stay on track in their walk with God. When a friend values you, believes in you, and encourages you, it changes everything! I want to be that kind of friend to others!

What is your take?

Leave comments below. Be brief. Read the comments of others. Interact with them. Encouraging comments only please.

Coming soon

  • Saturday & Sunday: we will read a chapter from Psalms each day. Psalms helps us to deal with our feelings and instructs us how to worship God. So whether you had a tough week or want to prepare for worship this weekend, you will be blessed!
  • Monday: we will read a chapter from Proverbs. Proverbs is filled with wisdom and will help us to make wise choices throughout next week.
  • Tuesday-Friday: We will read the amazing story of Joseph. His attitudes and choices are among the most inspiring in the Bible!
