Colossians 4:12 says, "Epaphras, who is one of you, a bondservant of Christ,
greets you, always laboring fervently for you in prayers, that you may stand
perfect and complete in all the will of God."
Boy, do we need an Epaphras in our lives; in fact, we need several, don't we?
I can use all I can get. Imagine someone who has your best interest at heart
"laboring fervently for you in prayers". What a gift! The wonderful thing about
being an Epaphras is that no matter how down we are, we are able to keep going
because Epaphras is praying on our behalf.
Who is your Epaphras? I know I have many. More importantly, whose Epaphras
are you? As I get older, I realize that more and more I need to be an Epaphras.
How about you?
