1 Timothy 1; 2 Thessalonians 3

Father, you are King Eternal, immortal, invisible. You are God. You alone are wise. To you be honor and glory forever.

You are merciful to me through Christ Jesus. You showed me patience and a pattern for being a believer in your eternal gospel.

Christ Jesus came to save sinners, and I was certainly one, but I obtained mercy. Your grace, Lord Jesus, was exceedingly abundant. You filled me with faith and love.

Now I follow good doctrine. I do not give heed to foolishness or disputes, rather I live in Godly edification and faith. I love from a pure heart, from a good conscience, and a sincere faith.

I do not grow weary in doing good. I do not keep company with disobedience. I do not contemplate evil. You, Lord Jesus, the Lord of Peace, give me peace always in every way. You are with me always, and I am always in you.
