Paul encouraged his friends in the letter to Philemon while
their faith in Jesus, their love for him
and their work to refresh the faith of other believers encouraged him. In verses four through seven Paul reminds me
that our daily walk with Jesus will influence other believers. Paul urges his friends to live their faith
such that other believers will be refreshed and that faith in Jesus alone will grip their lives. In the Living Bible verse 6 Paul prays that
sharing their faith with others would grip their lives so they would see the
wealth of good things that come from Jesus.
A friend shared a challenging day and how it made him
feel. When he got in his car a
particular song was on the radio and he
was assured that God was in control. We
encouraged him when we rejoiced in his testimony.

A friend shared how she had been affected by a lengthy
challenge and how she just wanted her
life back. Her friend called and
had made arrangements for a first step in making her life normal again. I encouraged her with an enthusiastic
Hallelujah!
