Thematic Bible: Contributes to the maintenance of paul

But I rejoiced in the Lord greatly, that now at length ye revived your thought in my behalf, for whom ye were taking thought, but ye lacked opportunity. Not that I am speaking in respect of want; for I learned in whatsoever circumstances I am, to be content. I both know how to be humbled, and I know how to abound: in everything, and in all things, I have learned both to be well fed, and to be hungry, both to abound, and to be in want. read more.
I am strong enough for all things in Him Who strengtheneth me. Notwithstanding, ye did well, in sharing with me in my tribulation. And know ye also, Philippians, that in the beginning of the Gospel, when I went forth from Macedonia, no assembly had fellowship with me in the matter of giving and receiving, but ye only; because even in Thessalonica ye sent once and again to my need. Not that I am seeking for the gift; but I seek for the fruit that abounds to your account. But I have all, and abound; I have been filled, having received from Epaphroditus the things sent from you, an odor of sweet smell, an acceptable sacrifice, well-pleasing to God.
