Philippians 4:10-15 New International Reader's Version (NIRV)

10. At last you are concerned about me again. That makes me very happy. We belong to the Lord. I know that you have been concerned. But you had no chance to show it.

11. I'm not saying that because I need anything. I have learned to be content no matter what happens to me.

12. I know what it's like not to have what I need. I also know what it's like to have more than I need. I have learned the secret of being content no matter what happens. I am content whether I am well fed or hungry. I am content whether I have more than enough or not enough.

13. I can do everything by the power of Christ. He gives me strength.

14. But it was good of you to share in my troubles.

15. And you believers at Philippi know what happened when I left Macedonia. Not one church helped me in the matter of giving and receiving. You were the only one that did. That was in the early days when you first heard the good news.
