2 Timothy 1:3-7
Welcome to our online Bible Study.
We are glad that you are here.
Today we are reading 2 Timothy 1.
As we read, these verses stood out to me:
2 Timothy 1:3-7 - 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, 4 longing to see you, even as I recall your tears, so that I may be filled with joy. For I am mindful of the sincere faith within you, which first dwelt in your grandmother Lois and your mother Eunice, and I am sure that it is in you as well. 6 For this reason I remind you to kindle afresh the gift of God which is in you through the laying on of my hands. 7 For God has not given us a spirit of timidity, but of power and love and discipline.
