4
Remembering your tears, I long to see you so that I may be filled with joy,
2 Timothy 1:4 In-Context
2
To Timothy, my dear son: Grace, mercy and peace from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.
3
I thank God, whom I serve, as my ancestors did, with a clear conscience, as night and day I constantly remember you in my prayers.
4
Recalling your tears, I long to see you, so that I may be filled with joy.
5
I am reminded of your sincere faith, which first lived in your grandmother Lois and in your mother Eunice and, I am persuaded, now lives in you also.
6
For this reason I remind you to fan into flame the gift of God, which is in you through the laying on of my hands.
