A Man Of God

Scripture: 11 Timothy, don’t let this happen to you —run away from these things! You are a man of God. Your quest is for justice, godliness, faithfulness, love, perseverance, and gentleness. (1 Timothy 6:11 The Voice) Timothy was a young man who had been given the responsibility of leading a church. Paul had great confidence in him, but in his letter to Timothy had given him many instructions about how to lead and how to relate to those in the church. (Good lessons for those who lead today as well.) Then he finishes this letter with saying, “You are a man of God.” Paul could see in Timothy that he had a quest for justice, godliness, faithfulness, love, perseverance, and gentleness. Are these attributes that we should all seek after in our lives? Father God, I will say yes to that question myself. I do want those attributes to be evident in my life. Help me to do more and better in this quest. Thank You. AMEN I will give thanks to my Lord, for He is good! His faithfulness endures forever. He alone is the One who does mighty miracles. Psalm 106
