GratitudeFaith

6 And you also are among those who are called to belong to Jesus Christ.

7 To all in Rome who are loved by God and called to be saints: Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for all of you, because your faith is being proclaimed all over the world.

9 God, whom I serve with my spirit in preaching the gospel of His Son, is my witness how constantly I remember you

10 in my prayers at all times, asking that now at last by God’s will I may succeed in coming to you.
