Romans 16

It is of the utmost importance that we recognize those that help us succeed. Paul spent much of his time travelling, preaching, and writing letters, and as such he is credited with building and nurturing many of the earliest churches in the world. Thankfully, Paul recognizes that he didn't work alone.

As he closes this letter, I am reminded to share my thanks with all of those that have helped me over the years. Some have helped me succeed in my job. Some have helped me succeed in ministry. Some have helped me be a better parent. Some have helped me be a better husband. And some have helped me have more fun. The point is that we are not alone, and we do not live in a vacuum. We work together with others every day, and we always need to remember the help that they provide in our success.
