Philippians 2:21
19 Now I hope in the Lord Jesus to send Timothy to you soon, that I also may be cheered when I learn how you are doing.
20 I have nobody else like him who will genuinely care for your needs.
For all the others look after their own interests, not those of Jesus Christ.
22 But you know Timothy’s proven worth, that as a child with his father he has served with me to advance the gospel.
23 So I hope to send him as soon as I see what happens with me.
