Romans 1:11-13

¹¹I have been waiting for a long time. I really want to see you. I want to help you get more power from God to make you strong.

¹²Then I will see how much you trust God and you will see how much I trust God, and this will make all of us happy.

¹³You know, I tried to come and see you many times, but God stopped me every time up till now. I want to come and work there with you and get more people to follow Jesus, just like I did at other places.
