“For God has not given us a spirit of fear and timidity, but of power, love, and self-discipline.” 2 Timothy 1:7
“Soldiers don’t get tied up in the affairs of civilian life, for then they cannot please the officer who enlisted them.” 2 Timothy 2:4
“Avoid worthless , foolish talk that only leads to more godless behavior.” 2 Timothy 2:16
“Be still in the presence of the Lord and wait patiently for him to act.” Psalm 37:7
It is so easy to get involved in the ways of the world. With all of the social media platforms existing in today’s world, we can easily slip into fear, doubt and worry without even knowing it. However, just as 2 Timothy 1:7 tells us, our God has given us a spirit of power, love, and self-discipline. We are to stay close to our Lord and never stray far from his word. If we surround ourselves with the world then we will become a part of its ways. We have been put upon this earth but we are not to become a party to its nature . We are not to get involved in things that don’t concern us. We are not to become a part of the foolishness of the world’s ways. Instead, we are to surround ourselves with his holiness and love. When we do, we will continue to build our faith and become even stronger in our journey on this earth. PRAISE THE LORD IN ALL THINGS!
