1 & 2 Timothy Sample
Living for Christ can be hard. As children of God, we become targets of Satan, and there are days when we can feel like throwing in the towel. But Paul reminds us to fight the good fight. God is with us, and we are not alone in our battles. Sure, we can get discouraged and hurt by others, but we must see our lives through spiritual eyes. Now we are in the invisible battle, but one day it will end, and heaven awaits. Our lives are like a vapor compared to the eternity that we will spend in heaven with Jesus. Remember what awaits you when you feel like tapping out.
Dear Jesus,
Help me to see my life with eyes of faith. There are days when I wonder if it all is worth it: the sacrifice, the disappointments, the attacks from the enemy. Speak to my heart and help me to remember what awaits me on those days when my faith wanes, and I’m tempted to quit. Give me the strength to stand. Place friends in my life to help encourage me and help me to find my satisfaction and validation in You and You alone. Amen.

About this Plan
After an encounter with Jesus, Paul was radically changed. This change led him to plant churches, go on missions, and write much of the New Testament. Two of the books he penned were letters written to a young man named Timothy. Paul wrote regarding church leadership and ministry perseverance that are powerful reminders to us today as we seek to stand firm with faith in an ungodly world.
