The Apostle John prays for his church:
Beloved, I pray that all may go well with you and that you may be in good health, as it goes well with your soul. – 3 John 2
John Trapp, an Anglican Bible commentator and pastor in the 1600s, explains what it means for our souls to prosper.
The soul prospers when it has close communion with God;
enjoys the light of his loving countenance (smiling face);
preferring his favor before the world’s warm sun.”
Don’t let an evening pass without asking the Lord
to kindle a renewed zeal and fervor for Him
in your heart as you contemplate
His infinite mercies and sacrificial love in Jesus for you!
That was good! Also, John Trapp’s short comments are always a joy to read. Thank you!
