Life for all of us is full of opportunities for being kind, for showing the friendship of Christ, but how many of us fail to note the opportunities, to understand the needs, the heart-hungers, and to be the friend in need.  The friendship of Christ never fails.  Much of the failure of human friendship is negative—in not doing the things that ought to have been done.  We are not unkind to our friends, but we are not kind.  We do nothing to harm them, but neither do we do the things which would do them good.

J. R. Miller

Now I want you to know, brothers and sisters, that what has happened to me has actually served to advance the gospel.  As a result, it has become clear throughout the whole palace guard and to everyone else that I am in chains for Christ.  And because of my chains, most of the brothers and sisters have become confident in the Lord and dare all the more to proclaim the gospel without fear.

Philippians 1:12-14
The New International Version

Dost thou live and fear God?  It is enough!  I give thee the right hand of fellowship.

Common greeting of John Wesley
