Thanksgiving and Prayer
3eI thank my God fin all my remembrance of you, 4always in every prayer of mine for you all making my prayer with joy, 5gbecause of your partnership in the gospel from the first day until now. 6And I am sure of this, that he who began ha good work in you iwill bring it to completion at jthe day of Jesus Christ. 7It is right for me to feel this way about you all, because I hold you kin my heart, for you are all lpartakers with me of grace,4 both min my imprisonment and in nthe defense and confirmation of the gospel. 8For oGod is my witness, phow I yearn for you all with the affection of Christ Jesus. 9And it is my prayer that qyour love may abound more and more, rwith knowledge and all discernment, 10so that you may approve what is excellent, sand so be pure and blameless tfor the day of Christ, 11filled uwith the fruit of righteousness that comes vthrough Jesus Christ, wto the glory and praise of God.
