Philippians & Colossians quick reads

1.29 but also to suffer for His sake... A heavy thought that I have little experience with.
2.12-13 Another human responsibility - Divine sovereignty set of verses. Lot's to think about here.
2.14 without grumbling or questioningg... I would like to see this in some other versions.
3.20 citizenship in heaven... I've been thinking about this more lately. One of the good things about the dismal state of the mess of human government is that it strengthens my affection for and focus on my heavenly citizenship.

Colossians
2.2 knit together in love... What a great thought! We need to figure out how to do more knitting together.
2.10 putting off the body of the flesh... The context makes this an interesting verse to think about.
4.3 Continue steadfastly in prayer, being watchful with thanksgiving. A good word for us. The combining of watchful and thanksgiving is very thought provoking. What is the synergy between watchfulness and thanksgiving.
