Romans 1:7-11

I'm writing to all of you in Rome who are loved by God, and called to be his special people. Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ!

Let me begin by saying that I thank my God through Jesus Christ for all of you, because the way in which you trust in God is spoken about all over the world.

I'm always praying for you, as God can confirm—the God I serve with the whole of my being as I share the good news about his Son.

In my prayers I'm always asking that I might eventually come and see you, if that's what God wants.

I really want to visit you and share with you a spiritual blessing to strengthen you.
