Where one man reads the Bible, a hundred read you and me. -D.L. Moody
2 Timothy 3:10-11 - But thou hast fully known my doctrine, manner of life, purpose, faith, longsuffering, charity, patience, Persecutions, afflictions, which came unto me at Antioch, at Iconium, at Lystra; what persecutions I endured: but out of them all the Lord delivered me.
Paul was telling Timothy, his spiritual son, “Timothy, you know me! My life has been an example to you! You have seen me on my good days and my bad days. You have seen me in prison and on point. You have heard what I have preached and taught. Out of everything I have gone through, the Lord delivered me! Timothy, He will deliver you as well!
Child of God, find yourself a Christian role model. One like Paul was to Timothy. It may be the person who led you to the Lord. It may be your Mom or Dad, a Sunday School teacher, your Pastor, a Missionary, a good Christian friend, or Christian co-worker. As they follow the Lord, they are an encouragement for you to follow as well. They provoke you unto good works. They challenge you to stand-fast! They are the good roll model you need to keep on keeping on!
