Daily Wisdom: Philippians 2:14-16

Thursday, November 28, 1957

Do everything without complaining or arguing, so that you may become blameless and pure, children of God without fault in a crooked and depraved generation, in which you shine like stars in the universe as you hold out the word of life—in order that I may boast on the day of Christ that I did not run or labor for nothing.
— Philippians 2:14-16
