2 Timothy 1:1-5

                  TIMOTHY

Jewish children were taught by parents or grandparents at home. Timothy was blessed with a grandmother (Lois) and mother (Eunice) who loved the Lord. Both taught Timothy from the Word of God, even when he was very young. It is said of Timothy, “And that from a child thou hast known the Holy Scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus” (2 Timothy 3:15). us, Timothy grew up, learning from all the many Bible stories. He became Paul’s disciple and friend. He even joined Paul’s missionary journeys to tell people in other countries about the Lord Jesus Christ. Timothy later became a preacher of the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ.

Dear child, you too must learn and grow in the Lord. On a daily basis, do your QT and be faithful in reading the bible. Sometimes you may wonder if it does any good. Of course it does, although it would take time for you to change slowly and more and more like Jesus. Continue attending Sunday School to learn more about God and His Word. These are ways to grow in faith and knowledge of the Lord Jesus Christ.

Thought: Do I continue to learn from my parents and Sunday School?
Prayer: Heavenly Father, bless my parents and grandparents. I thank You for them and for what they can teach me. I pray also I may be faithful in learning from Sunday School and my daily quiet time. In Jesus' name Amen
