Romans 1:9

Paul Wants To Visit Rome

⁸ First of all, I want to thank my God through Jesus Christ for all of you, because your faith is being told about throughout the whole world. ⁹ For God, whom I serve wholeheartedly in [preaching] the Gospel of His Son, is my witness [to the truth] of how continually I mention you in my prayers. ¹⁰ I am always requesting that somehow, by God's will, I may now eventually be able to visit you.
