It’s not the going out but the coming in that determines the success of a voyage.
2 Timothy 4:7, I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith:
At the end of his life, under the inspiration of God, Paul pens this letter to Timothy to encourage him in the faith. Paul was in prison. Paul had been persecuted. Paul was really the one who needed encouragement but he found it more important to encourage the next generation rather that whine and complain about his own life. He wanted others to finish well!
Are you an encourager? Do you invest in others? Do you want to finish well? Get your eyes off your situation! Get your eyes on Jesus! Get busy serving Him like you once did! If you stop, your ship is sunk and others will say, he started well but didn’t stay the course! One last thing this morning friend, FINISH WELL!
