July 20, 20082 Timothy 1:7
”God did not give us a spirit of timidity, but a spirit of power, of love, and of self-discipline.” 2 Timothy 1:7
To ensure success and leadership didn’t go to Timothy’s head he helps him understand true power.
Power! We like that concept: but when it is godly power, it doesn’t fly solo - because godly power is accompanied equally alongside love and self-control.
These three together make a person’s life incredibly effective. Live life to its fullest: not as a God follower in hiding, afraid of standing true and firm, but one who lives by God’s power, shares God’s irrational love, and displays God’s character.
