Philippians 4:14-17

God's Provision

¹⁴ Yet it was kind of you _e to share ₁ my trouble. ¹⁵ And you Philippians yourselves know that _f in the beginning of the gospel, when I left Macedonia, _g no church entered into partnership with me in giving and receiving, except you only. ¹⁶ Even in Thessalonica you sent me help for my needs once and again. ¹⁷ _h Not that I seek the gift, but I seek _i the fruit that increases to your credit. ₂
