1 You therefore, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus.

13 Hold fast the pattern of sound words which you have heard from me, in faith and love which are in Christ Jesus. 14 That good thing which was committed to you, keep by the Holy Spirit who dwells in us.

11 For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope.

6 Train up a child in the way he should go, And when he is old he will not depart from it.

3 Let nothing be done through selfish ambition or conceit, but in lowliness of mind let each esteem others better than himself.

21 For to me, to live is Christ, and to die is gain.

9 He who has ears to hear, let him hear!”

18 The Lord is near to those who have a broken heart, And saves such as have a contrite spirit.
