The World English Bible (WEB): 2 Timothy
Book 55 2 Timothy 001:001 Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ through the will of God, according to the promise of the life which is in Christ Jesus, 001:002 to Timothy, my beloved child: Grace, mercy, and peace, from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord. 001:003 I thank God, whom I serve as my forefathers did, with a pure conscience. How unceasing is my memory of you in my petitions, night and day 001:004 longing to see you, remembering your tears, that I may be filled with joy; 001:005 having been reminded of the unfeigned faith that is in you; which lived first in your grandmother Lois, and your mother Eunice, and, I am persuaded, in you also. 001:006 For this cause, I remind you that you should stir up the gift of God which is in you through the laying on of my hands. 001:007 For God didn't give us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and self-control. 001:008 Therefore don't be ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me his prisoner; but endure hardship for the Good News according to the power of God, 001:009 who saved us and called us with a holy calling, not according
There was little doing in N.O. & G. stock on Monday or Tuesday. It

It was nearly five o'clock before we started up the lane toward
Bishop's. We were delayed half an hour waiting for Marshall, but,
knowing his weakness, we fixed the time of departure half an hour sooner
than necessary.
If Marshall's hope for eternal salvation depended on applying at the
pearly gates at a specified time, he would spend eternity in the other
place on account of being thirty minutes late. Knowing this to be his
habit, we always provide against it. If the club house ever catches on
fire, we shall lose Marshall, and he is a splendid good fellow.
Marshall's wife informs me it took him thirty weeks to propose after he
had made up his mind to do so, and that after the wedding day was set it
was necessary to postpone the ceremony thirty days in order to permit
him to attend to some trifling business affairs. We call him "Thirty"
Marshall, and it takes him thirty seconds to smile in appreciation of
the jest. But he plays a good game of golf, with at least four
deliberate practise swings before each stroke at the ball.
Chilvers wanted to have a team hitched up and ride over in the club bus.
He said it tired him to walk. We vetoed that proposition, and Chilvers
