(3) I thank God, whom I serve, as my ancestors did, with a clear conscience, as night and day I constantly remember you in my prayers.
- Clear conscious referring to Paul's reliance on God???
- Prayers for others can help give us a mindset based upon an eternal perspective.
12 That is why I am suffering as I am. Yet this is no cause for shame, because I know whom I have believed, and am convinced that he is able to guard what I have entrusted to him until that day.
Paul didn't complain or drown himself in self pity because he was fully convinced God put him in specific circumstances for a purpose.
