6 Of this I am fully persuaded, that He who has begun a good work in you will go on completing it until the day of Jesus Christ.
6 Exult in this, though now for a brief moment, if need be, you have suffered many hardships.
13 I am strong for everything in Him who gives me strength.
7 For God has not given us a spirit of cowardice, but a spirit of power and of love and of self-control.
16 For this reason, as I have said, I do not lose courage, but even though my outward man is wasting away, my inward man is being renewed, day by day.
7 I have been comforted, my brothers, in regard to you, in spite of all my distress and affliction over your faith.
11 So comfort one another, and try to build one another up, as indeed you are doing.
11 For I am longing so to see you, in order to impart to you some spiritual gift, so that you may be established;
12 that is, that I with you may be encouraged by you, each of us by the others faith, yours and mine.
