Heavenly Father, thank You for the epistles of Paul and the teaching and encouragement we gain from them. Thank You for the life of Timothy who was used to great benefit in the early Church, in defending the gospel of grace and teaching the truth of good news of Christ. Keep me faithful in the place where You have planted me, and I pray that my life may be an example to others of someone who holds fast to the pattern of sound teaching recorded in so many of Paul's epistles. Thank You that you are an ever faithful God Who keeps His promises from one generation to another. In Jesus' name, AMEN.
