2 Timothy 2:1-13

Please forgive me for my lack of posts lately! I haven't really known what to write about. This morning I decided to share with you some verses that have meant a lot of me this week. I have written in bold the thoughts that particularly stood out to me.


"Thou therefore, my son,
be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus.
And the things that thou hast heard of me among many witnesses,
the same commit thou to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also.
Thou therefore endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ.

No man that warreth entangleth himself with the affairs of this life;
that he may please him who hath chosen him to be a soldier.
And if a man also strive for masteries,
yet is he not crowned, except he strive lawfully.
The husbandman that laboureth must be first partaker of the fruits.
Consider what I say; and the Lord give thee understanding in all things.
Remember that Jesus Christ of the seed of David
was raised from the dead according to my gospel:
Wherein I suffer trouble, as an evil doer, even unto bonds;
but the word of God is not bound.
Therefore I endure all things for the elect's sakes,
that they may also obtain the salvation which is in Christ Jesus with eternal glory.
It is a faithful saying:
For if we be dead with him, we shall also live with him:
If we suffer, we shall also reign with him:
if we deny him, he also will deny us:
If we believe not, yet he abideth faithful: he cannot deny himself."


Go in the strength of the Lord today! :-)
