Day 18: The Book of Timothy with a Prayer

man today was cool beans haha... went to church.. had an awesome service... man we went over the Book of Timothy ... Anh Thanh (my pastor) spoke a GREAT sermon today.. man... Anh Thanh went over this letter paul wrote about Timothy... Timothy was a young man... a very unique man.. he was nothing like Paul the apostle. Out of all of Paul's letters to his disciples... Timothy was the only one not like Paul. Physically different and spiritually. Timothy at first a man... gave into the flesh, gave into the world, went through temptation.. Timothy was going through what a normal christian person goes through.. later on in the book of timothy.. Pastor Thanh talked how timothy changed.. How he had the following 5 characteristics of a good christian: Faith in god, The word (open doctrine), obedience, conviction, and being a servant to God. as Anh Thanh preached and explained these 5 characteristics.. it made me realize.. man Ive been in a dry season.
1. i havent been obeying gods word
2. i have not had great faith in god
3. i have been going against my convictions
4. i have been not a lot in the church that serves a purpose to the Lord
5. i havent been using the word..

these chracteristics really gave me a wake up call.. how lost i have been... This whole chapter was about How Timothy was like a "spiritual son" to paul... in an analogy.. this book is telling us how to be A "True SPIRITUAL SON" TO JESUS CHRIST at the end of the sermon anh thanh asked us the question:

"How could you be a "true spiritual son" of God? What will you do to become this person?"

- Pastor Thanh
