—Acts 20:16-21
by: Kristin Camenga.
It is a joy to get together with old friends, and I will often go out of my way to visit with them. Paul, on his way to Jerusalem, makes a quick stop and thinks it so important to talk to the Ephesian elders that he calls them to him. His relationship with them is based on his service for the Lord, service in which he endured trials and did whatever he could to help them grow in their faith. Paul was wholehearted in his friendship with them—whether he lived with them, or was visiting. I pray that I can be so wholehearted and focused in my friendships.
