I thank God, whom I serve from my forefathers with pure conscience, that without ceasing I have remembrance of thee in my prayers night and day;
I'm so grateful to God, the same God my family has served for generations with a clear conscience, because I literally never stop thinking about you when I pray, like every single night and day.
You're constantly on my heart when I talk to God.
