2 Timothy 1:1-4

The Voice

1 Paul, an emissary^[a] of Jesus the Anointed commissioned by God’s will according to the promise of life found only in Jesus the Anointed, ² to you, my dear child Timothy.

May grace, mercy, and peace from God our Father and our Lord Jesus the Anointed be yours.

^3-4 Timothy, you are constantly in my prayers. Day and night I remember you before God and give thanks to Him whom I serve with a clean conscience, as did my ancestors. I really want to see you, especially when I remember how you cried the last time we were together. Yes, I know it would make me joyful to see you again.
