For this reason I tell you, whatever you pray and ask for, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours.

We pray earnestly night and day to see you in person ¹  and make up what may be lacking in your faith.

I pray ¹  that the faith you share with us may deepen your understanding of every blessing ²  that belongs to you ³  in Christ. ⁴
