[:en]Thoughts from “Our Daily Bread” (6/14/17)[:]

[:en]Timothy’s grandmother Lois and mother Eunice were the one who led him to know God and taught him God’s word. (2 Tim. 1:5).  Paul encouraged Timothy to continue his sincere faith in God.  He also exhorted him to be strong for “God did not give us a spirit of timidity but a spirit of power, of love and of self-disciple. (2 Tim. 1:6).  He instructed him to keep the pattern of sound teaching of faith and love in Christ Jesus.

As believers in Christ, we must seek spiritual food by reading and studying God’s word.  We must have a desire to learn and grow closer to Him.

Who has helped you grow in your faith?  And who in turn can you help?  Let us show appreciation to God and strengthen our relationship with Him by encouraging others to grow in the knowledge of God.
