This letter is from Paul and Timothy, slaves of Christ Jesus.

May God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ give you grace and peace.

Above all, you must live as citizens of heaven, conducting yourselves in a manner worthy of the Good News about Christ. .

And now, dear brothers and sisters, one final thing. Fix your thoughts on what is true, and honorable, and right, and pure, and lovely, and admirable. Think about things that are excellent and worthy of praise. 9Keep putting into practice all you learned and received from me—everything you heard from me and saw me doing. Then the God of peace will be with you.

Lord God my Father,

Help me to completely surrender to your way so I may be a servant for you. Allow your Peace to rest well with me so I may be a witness to others as to your power alive in me. Help me to keep my gaze on you and not on the struggles.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen
