“as sorrowful, yet alway rejoicing; as poor, yet making many rich; as having nothing, and yet possessing all things.”
2 Corinthians 6:10 KJV
Paul explains the true characteristics of the believer in Christ, “We may suffer, yet in every season we are always found rejoicing. We may be poor, yet we bestow great riches on many. We seem to have nothing, yet in reality we possess all things.” What an amazing list of true apostolic ministry. These are the virtues that endeared Paul and his ministry companions to the churches and validated his authority as an example to them of God’s true servant. Whatever Paul suffered, he only rejoiced in Christ. Always a cheerful giver and generous to all who needed, yet never lacked anything. The authority with which he disbursed help, healing and honour to all who needed, as unto God. May we choose to be God’s true servant doing all we do as doing to Christ Himself. Amen!
