Thanksgiving

⁴ I always thank my God for you^(A) because of his grace given you in Christ Jesus. ⁵ For in him you have been enriched^(B) in every way—with all kinds of speech and with all knowledge^(C)—

⁷ Therefore you do not lack any spiritual gift^(A) as you eagerly wait for our Lord Jesus Christ to be revealed.^(B)

⁴ Recalling your tears,^(A) I long to see you,^(B) so that I may be filled with joy. ⁵ I am reminded of your sincere faith,^(C) which first lived in your grandmother Lois and in your mother Eunice^(D) and, I am persuaded, now lives in you also.
