⁸ We don't want you in the dark, friends, about how hard it was when all this came down on us in Asia province. It was so bad we didn't think we were going to make it. ⁹ We felt like we'd been sent to death row, that it was all over for us. As it turned out, it was the best thing that could have happened. Instead of trusting in our own strength or wits to get out of it, we were forced to trust God totally--not a bad idea ¹⁰ And he did it, rescued us from certain doom. And he'll do it again, rescuing us as many times as we need rescuing.
