2 Timothy 1:3 - Praying Night and Day

HIS WORDS


I thank God, whom I serve with a clear conscience the way my forefathers did, as I constantly remember you in my prayers night and day . . . (NASB95)

MY WORDS

I thank God, whom I serve free of guilt because I continue in the faith of my ancestors (because Jesus was always in the plan), as I remember you all the time in my prayers. 

MY STUDY
Sitting chained in a Roman prison there was little else Paul could do but pray; and Timothy, perhaps Paul’s closest companion, ministering to the church that Paul probably knew best, was no doubt the single most common object of his petitions.

I WILL

Since I have a low-key day today, I will continue to pray faithfully for past women I have discipled as You bring them to mind.
