Thematic Bible: Contributes to the maintenance of paul

But I rejoiced in the Lord greatly, that now at length ye have revived again in your care for my welfare; for which indeed ye cared before, but lacked opportunity. Not that I speak on account of want; for I have learned, in whatever state I am, therewith to be content. I know how to be abased, and I know also how to abound; in every thing and in all things I have been well taught, both to be full and to be hungry, both to abound and to be in want; read more.
I can do all things in him who strengtheneth me. Notwithstanding, ye did well in sharing with me in my distress. And ye yourselves also know, Philippians, that in the beginning of the gospel, when I went forth from Macedonia, no church communicated with me in an account of giving and receiving, but ye only; for even in Thessalonica ye sent once and again to my necessity. Not that I seek for such a gift, but I do seek for fruit that may abound to your account. But I have all, and abound; I am full, having received from Epaphroditus what was sent from you, a sweet odor, a sacrifice acceptable, wellpleasing to God.
