CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Personal thoughts from reading Philippians chapter 1.  Paul, writing from prison, is praying for others, sharing the gospel with courage and encouraging others in their walk with God and they too share the gospel “without fear”.  His mind isn’t focused on his immediate trials but on eternal things.  Key words from this chapter I noticed he wrote from prison.  Joy, yearn for you, confident, without fear, Christ is proclaimed and in that I rejoice, eager expectation, full courage, hope, convinced, joy in the faith, standing firm, not frightened.

Verse 27 “Only let your manner of life be worthy of the gospel of Christ.”

Question to myself and us as men, “What is my attitude and outlook during difficult times?”  Paul was in prison but still kept pushing forward with what God wanted him to do.

In Philippians chapter 1 Paul is writing from prison but still having an attitude of thankfulness and encouragement. Even in the midst of obvious trials, he still didn’t loose sight of what God wanted him to do and was thankful for the people he had to partner with him.  May we have that attitude and thank God for the people He has put in our lives to partner with us.
