when you talk together; with psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and with all your hearts making music unto the Lord;

do not cease to praise God for you, whenever I mention you in my prayers.

So, on the following day, when boats came from Tiberias near the place were they had eaten bread, after the Lord had given thanks, they got into the boats themselves,

while all of you also are helping me by your prayers; so that from many lips thanksgiving may rise on my behalf for the blessings vouchsafed to me through the intercessions of many.

THANKS BE TO GOD FOR HIS UNSPEAKABLE GIFT!

Do not worry about anything; but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God;

Let the peace of Christ, to which also you were called in one body, rule in your hearts, and show yourselves thankful.
