 Paul gave that ezhortatoa or advice,
 and do not think that any one of gou '~- 70 would charge that Paul apDkc from ,.
 peculiarly favored position. It not
 easy for Paul to give thanks because he
 had much to be thank ful for. ou N Pay not be called drcpv stgdeRt of the

 hard time of 1t in his mInistry IlcNyas
 not carried to the skies nowery beds NeT @l bl sesb6l he did not move from caYGo
 city without the rubbing of tribulation %. and the sQQuEging of tough diYcpltpe.
 He whipped with cruel lashes upon
 his naked back, he gwAB st0nAd he was
 nsultcd and exposed to the charges of
 selfsecking and pride, he flung into
 prison, his feet made fast In stocks, oV b"'s[ he vas in IerilUof the sea and perls of ftAe l9pd and perils of the city and perils
 of his own countrymen. He fought with !1 ..,' -~ wild beasts at Ephesus and felt the Em- 44:~tE peror's hate at Rome. No, Paul did not
 have easy time; life was not so de-
 lghtful to him that 1t hard to give it s1- ~ --.. up. He did not write the words of our 24- A~!e~' text from specially favored standpoint Bo.t He did not have more to be thankful for lD than most men \ our life and mine are .5 e-~ '. lives of ease and absence from com. 4 aa.. . .. pared with the life of Paul.
