2 Timothy 1:8
So do not be ashamed of your testimony to our Lord…
------------------------------------------------------------
Don't be discouraged if you think you lack faith. Sometimes people who profess belief in God are deeply ashamed when a crisis occurs and they find their faith is weak. This may happen to all of us.
But don't despair. The Bible shows that even men and women of powerful faith struggled at times with faith-testing challenges. What is important is that we always find the right path to get away from all these temptations.
And the next time the same “tempting offer” from the devil happens, learn to stand firm and say no. Quote passages from the bible, as what Jesus did to rebuke the devil. Do not be ashamed of your testimony to the Lord.
And allow yourself to be changed. Let Him work in you. Let Him change you for the better. The more we allow for the Holy Spirit to work in our lives, the more goodness becomes evident in our everyday life.
Give kindness and it will be returned to you. Let your walk and talk always be filled with kindness. Then, let others feel the Spirit within you and let them experience the same.
For the same Spirit of God should work inside of us, and renew us, for the better, as we await His Son’s glorious return.
Let us pray +
Almighty Father, from whom every good gift comes, send your Spirit into our lives, and by the flame of your wisdom open the horizons of our minds. Loosen our tongues to sing your praise in words beyond the power of speech, for without your Spirit man could never raise his voice in words of peace or announce the truth that Jesus is Lord. Amen +
To you, O Lord, I lift up my eyes.
