God knows how often I pray for you. Day and night I bring you and your needs in prayer to God, whom I serve with all my heart by spreading the Good News about his Son.

With Christ as my witness, I speak with utter truthfulness. My conscience and the Holy Spirit confirm it.

Therefore, my dear brothers and sisters, stay true to the Lord. I love you and long to see you, dear friends, for you are my joy and the crown I receive for my work.

Lord, look down from heaven; look from your holy, glorious home, and see us. Where is the passion and the might you used to show on our behalf? Where are your mercy and compassion now?

I long to see you again, for I remember your tears as we parted. And I will be filled with joy when we are together again.

Because of God’s tender mercy, the morning light from heaven is about to break upon us,

Now he cares for you more than ever when he remembers the way all of you obeyed him and welcomed him with such fear and deep respect.

I am sending him because he has been longing to see you, and he was very distressed that you heard he was ill.

Is there any encouragement from belonging to Christ? Any comfort from his love? Any fellowship together in the Spirit? Are your hearts tender and compassionate?

Yes, my brother, please do me this favor for the Lord’s sake. Give me this encouragement in Christ.

“ Is not Israel still my son, my darling child?” says the Lord.“ I often have to punish him, but I still love him. That’s why I long for him and surely will have mercy on him.

We loved you so much that we shared with you not only God’s Good News but our own lives, too.

Since God chose you to be the holy people he loves, you must clothe yourselves with tenderhearted mercy, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience.

I declare before God that what I am writing to you is not a lie.

I am sending him back to you, and with him comes my own heart.

There is no lack of love on our part, but you have withheld your love from us.

Oh, my dear children! I feel as if I’m going through labor pains for you again, and they will continue until Christ is fully developed in your lives.

We are glad to seem weak if it helps show that you are actually strong. We pray that you will become mature.

Never once did we try to win you with flattery, as you well know. And God is our witness that we were not pretending to be your friends just to get your money!

I want you to know how much I have agonized for you and for the church at Laodicea, and for many other believers who have never met me personally.
