Pondering...

Finally, brothers and sisters, good-by. Aim for perfection, listen to my appeal, be of one mind, live in peace. And the God of love and peace will be with you.

Greet one another with a holy kiss. All the saints send their greetings.

May the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all.

I'm in the midst of putting together a sermon on this for Sunday. It's from 2nd Corinthians 13:11-14. It's the last words that Paul says to this church that he's had a really difficult relationship with, but has tremendous love for. (That is not to draw comparisons to my relationship with the church that I have been working with.)

I'm just trying to get inside what this is saying. So I've been thinking a lot about this passage.



I have way too much on my mind, in addition to this, so I could use a prayer or two if you have got some.
