E for Enough
Continuing with the most popular letter in the English language, here is an encapsulated rendition of Philippians chapters 3 & 4:
Look out-
Evil hides in religion:
Eighth day, a tribe, and some zeal.
Everything’s really through faith,
Eyes fixed ahead on our call.
All our
Enemies walk past the cross,
Ending in shame, filled with self.
Earth shapes their minds, but not ours,
Enabled by Christ to change.
Therefore,
Entreating sister workers,
Euodia, Syntyche,
Enter again side by side;
Everyone’s watching your lives.
And now
Each anxious thought in your hearts
Entrust as requests to God.
Everything worthy of praise,
Earnestly dwell on these things.
Know that
Extremes in life will abound-
Empty or full, I’m content.
Except for you, I’ve had Christ.
Enough in his strength, I’m supplied.
Why condense a book into phrases that start with E? Does it do any good or is it just amusing? Here’s what you might find in an exercise like this:
You concentrate and meditate on a passage, which puts it deeper into your heart.
You look for meaning in paragraphs, not just single verses.
You’ll never forget that Epaphroditus and Euodia are in the book with lots of E’s.
