3 John 2-4
2 Dear friend, I pray that you may enjoy good health and that all may go well with you, even as your soul is getting along well. 3 It gave me great joy to have some brothers come and tell about your faithfulness to the truth and how you continue to walk in the truth. 4 I have no greater joy than to hear that my children are walking in the truth.

2 We're the best of friends, and I pray for good fortune in everything you do, and for your good health — that your everyday affairs prosper, as well as your soul! 3 I was most happy when some friends arrived and brought the news that you persist in following the way of Truth. 4 Nothing could make me happier than getting reports that my children continue diligently in the way of Truth!
