For I am the least of all the apostles. In fact, I’m not even worthy to be called an apostle after the way I persecuted God’s church.
10But whatever I am now, it is all because God poured out his special favor on me—and not without results. For I have worked harder than any of the other apostles; yet it was not I but God who was working through me by his grace.
So, my dear brothers and sisters, be strong and immovable. Always work enthusiastically for the Lord, for you know that nothing you do for the Lord is ever useless.
Be on guard. Stand firm in the faith. Be courageous.16:13 Greek Be men. Be strong. 14And do everything with love.
If anyone does not love the Lord, that person is cursed. Our Lord, come!16:22 From Aramaic, Marana tha. Some manuscripts read Maran atha, “Our Lord has come.”
23May the grace of the Lord Jesus be with you.
24My love to all of you in Christ Jesus.
Lord God my Father,
I am not worthy of your attention, Thank you for not listening to me when I lie. You made me, I have no purpose without your direction, may I do your will with overwhelming courage. May your grace be with me.
In Jesus name I pray,
Amen
