Tell Archippus: ‘See to it that you complete the ministry you have received in the Lord.’ Colossians 4.17
From David King
I came across this verse in my quiet time recently. It is one of those lovely parts of Paul’s letters in which he mentions some of the individuals he knows at the church. It’s a reminder that these are letters from a pastor to those he loves and cares for.
The verse stood out for me, because I thought, “What if I put my name instead of Archippus’s?”
“Tell David: ‘See to it that you complete the ministry
you have received in the Lord.’”
There’s something to chew over.
Try it yourself this week.
