Philippians 2:29

²⁷ He was sick indeed, nearly unto death. But God had mercy on him, and not only on him but also on me, to spare me sorrow upon sorrow.

²⁸ Therefore I am all the more eager to send him, so that when you see him again you may rejoice, and I may be less anxious.

Welcome him in the Lord with great joy, and honor men like him,

³⁰ because he nearly died for the work of Christ, risking his life to make up for your deficit of service to me.
