The book of 3 John begins
with Paul praying for the well-being of Gaius. But take
a moment and let the words of his prayer sink in.
John said, "I pray that you may prosper in all
things and be in health, just as your soul
prospers."
Did you see that?
He prayed that his physical well-being prospered
as his soul prospered. I wonder what
would happen if that prayer was answered just as it was
prayed. Would you be full of new found energy, and feel
better than you have in years? Or would you need someone
to call a doctor or maybe even the coroner?
In a day and age when so
much stock is place on our physical condition, it is
refreshing to have our attention refocused upon what is really
important...the prosperity and well-being of our
soul! |
