Faithful Daily

2 Timothy 3

 14 But you must remain faithful to the things you have been taught. You know they are true, for you know you can trust those who taught you. 15 You have been taught the holy Scriptures from childhood, and they have given you the wisdom to receive the salvation that comes by trusting in Christ Jesus. 16 All Scripture is inspired by God and is useful to teach us what is true and to make us realize what is wrong in our lives. It corrects us when we are wrong and teaches us to do what is right. 17 God uses it to prepare and equip his people to do every good work.

Throughout this letter to Timothy, Paul reminds his young charge to stay faithful to the Word of God. That is sound advice for those of us at any age, and at any level in our walk with Christ. When I stay in the Word faithfully every day, I seem to be able to handle the “pressures” of everyday life much better. When I am not in the Word every day, well, that is another story (and one of which I am not proud). Lord, help me to be faithful to Your Word and stay in Your Word daily.
