Quote for the Day
“…I have kept the FAITH.”
Today's Prayer
This week pray for those traveling, that they will feel the power of love from those they have left at home. Ask God to show them His love poured out like a drink offering.
2nd Timothy 4:6-8
2nd Timothy 4:6-8 (NIV)6 For I am already being poured out like a drink offering, and the time has come for my departure. 7 I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. 8 Now there is in store for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will award to me on that day—and not only to me, but also to all who have longed for his appearing.No sent on

These two verses provide so much power and impact I have elected to show the DEEP relationship Paul has created with Timothy by summarizing them. Drink in the words ofPaul the Apostle, mentor to Timothy the protégé! Feel the powerful relationship between the two of them and even more so between them and God Almighty. [Please note: summary and emphasis mine.]I am being poured out like a drink offeringThe time has come for my departureI have fought the good fightI have finished the raceI have kept the FAITHIn store for me is the Crown of righteousness given by the Lord, the righteous JudgeThe same crown can be YOURS!I long for HIS appearingWhat a story of friendship, mentoring, companionship, and, best of all, eternal life! This week reflect on what God has done for you, and what you would like to be saying when your time to leave this earth arrives.
