Thanksgiving and Charge to Timothy

1:3 I am thankful to God, whom I have served with a clear conscience as my ancestors did, 1  when I remember you in my prayers as I do constantly night and day. 2  1:4 As I remember your tears, I long to see you, 3  so that I may be filled with joy. 1:5 I recall 4  your sincere faith 5  that was alive first in your grandmother Lois and in your mother Eunice, and I am sure 6  is in you.
