The life of an apostle. Paul shares what life is like for him. In reading Paul, we may envision a wise spiritual man in a safe comfortable environment. These words in 2 Corinthians give us a glimpse of Paul's real environment.
"I have been constantly on the move. I have been in danger from rivers, in danger from bandits, in danger from my own countrymen, in danger from Gentiles; in danger in the city, in danger in the country, in danger at sea; and in danger from false brothers. I have labored and toiled and have often gone without sleep; I have known hunger and thirst and have often gone without food; I have been cold and naked. Besides everything else, I face daily the pressure of my concern for all the churches."
