..but in everything commending ourselves as servants of God,
in much endurance, in afflictions, in hardships,
in distresses, in beatings, in imprisonments,
in tumults, in labors, in sleeplessness,
in hunger, in purity, in knowledge,
in patience, in kindness, in the Holy Spirit,
in genuine love, in the word of truth, in the power of God;
by the weapons of righteousness for the right hand and the left,
by glory and dishonour, by evil report and good report;
regarded as deceivers yet true;
as unknown yet well-known, as dying yet behold,
we live;
as punished yet not put to death,
as sorrowful yet always rejoicing,
as poor yet making many rich,
as having nothing yet possessing all things.
-2 Corinthians 6:4-10(Oh what sweet words to my soul are these)
