"God can testify how much I long for all of you with the affection of Christ Jesus" Philippians 1:8

God is a trustworthy witness because he sees and knows everything I do. He knows my intentions and the truth. When I think of the affection of Christ Jesus, his actions of love come to mind. His calming presence on the boat during the storm, his servant heart when washing the disciples' feet, and his sacrificial love when he died on the cross.

Be transformed by the affection of Christ Jesus,
that his affection flows through me to others in this world.
