2 Thessalonians 2; Romans 8

I give thanks to you, Father. From the beginning, you chose me for salvation, through sanctification, by your spirit and by belief in the truth. You called me to your gospel, and I was filled with the glory of the very person of Jesus Christ.

Therefore, I stand fast and hold to the good doctrine of your word. You love me and give me everlasting consolation and good hope by your grace. You comfort my heart and establish me in every good word and work.

I do obey, and I do love you, not always perfectly, but diligently and with endurance. You are faithful to me, Father. You establish your person in me, and you guard me from the evil one. You deliver me from unreasonable and wicked people, and situations.

You direct my heart into your divine love and into the patience of Christ. I am conformed to the image of my Lord and Savior, Jesus, your Christ.
