Timothy’s Faith and Heritage
3 I thank God, whom I serve with a pure conscience, as my (A)forefathers did, as without ceasing I remember you in my prayers night and day, 4 greatly desiring to see you, being mindful of your tears, that I may be filled with joy, 5 when I call to remembrance (B)the [a]genuine faith that is in you, which dwelt first in your grandmother Lois and (C)your mother Eunice, and I am persuaded is in you also. 6 Therefore I remind you (D)to stir up the gift of God which is in you through the laying on of my hands. 7 For (E)God has not given us a spirit of fear, (F)but of power and of love and of a sound mind.

3 I thank God,(A) whom I serve, as my ancestors did, with a clear conscience,(B) as night and day I constantly remember you in my prayers.(C) 4 Recalling your tears,(D) I long to see you,(E) so that I may be filled with joy. 5 I am reminded of your sincere faith,(F) which first lived in your grandmother Lois and in your mother Eunice(G) and, I am persuaded, now lives in you also.
Appeal for Loyalty to Paul and the Gospel
6 For this reason I remind you to fan into flame the gift of God, which is in you through the laying on of my hands.(H) 7 For the Spirit God gave us does not make us timid,(I) but gives us power,(J) love and self-discipline.
