“I have learned, in whatever state I am, to be content.”

“Be faithful unto death, and I will give you a crown of life.”

“The time of my departure is at hand.
I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith:
And now there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give me at that day: and not to me only, but unto all them also that love his appearing.”
