Romans 1:11-13

¹¹For I have a strong desire to see you, and to give you some grace of the spirit, so that you may be made strong;

¹²That is to say, that all of us may be comforted together by the faith which is in you and in me.

¹³You may be certain, my brothers, that it has frequently been in my mind to come to you (but till now I was kept from it), so that I might have some fruit from you in the same way as I have had it from the other nations.
