Creator’s blessing rests on the ones who stand firm under testing, for once they have passed the test, they will receive the headdress of life that has been promised to those who love the Great Spirit.
But you must remain clear-minded in every way, stand strong in hard times, and do the work of a good storyteller. Keep doing what Creator has called on you to do.
So do not be timid in telling others about our Honored Chief or that I am in prison because of him. But walk with me on this road of suffering for the sake of the good story as Creator gives us strength.
Remember those early days when you first started walking in the light of the good story. You kept walking the road even when the way forward was a struggle filled with pain and suffering.
So I keep walking through these troubled times for the sake of the ones whom the Great Spirit has chosen as his own. I want them to be set free and made whole through Creator Sets Free (Jesus) the Chosen One and be honored with him to the time beyond the end of all days.
Now, He Gives Honor (Timothy) my spiritual son, the instructions I give you are the same ones that were spoken over you as prophecies. Use these as weapons to keep fighting this spiritual battle in a good way.
You also know how much I suffered when I was at Stands Against (Antioch), Spirit Village (Iconium), and Set Free (Lystra), how they hunted me down to bring harm to me. But our Honored Chief rescued me in each of those places.
What nation would not care for the warriors who fight to keep them safe? Who plants a vineyard and is not permitted to eat fruit from it? Who watches over a flock of sheep and does not drink from its milk?
From Small Man (Paul), a message bearer for Creator Sets Free (Jesus) the Chosen One. The Great Spirit chose me to be a message bearer in harmony with the life he has promised through Creator Sets Free (Jesus) our Honored Chief.
And also to our spiritual sister Protected One (Apphia), to Horse Chief (Archippus) our fellow warrior, and to all the sacred family members who gather for ceremony at your house.
