Keep Your Head, 2 Timothy 4:5

Keep Your Head

2 Timothy 4:5 But you, keep your head in all situations, endure hardship, do the work of an evangelist, discharge all your duties of your ministries.

Paul is beginning to wrap up his letter to Timothy. He knows first hand how rough it is to be an evangelist and a spiritual leader of a church. In the midst of reaching out and preaching, in the difficulties of discipling and helping other to grow in the Lord... there is opposition. This is natural, for there is a struggle between those living for Christ and the world around them. Although this struggle involves people, the real struggle is not between us and them. It is between God and the spiritual forces of evil. But through it all, Timothy needed to carry on.

K and A, in the midst of an evil world, through the struggles of daily life, you must continue to love and serve God. It is not good enough to say that you have been saved - forgiven from sin. You must live for him and do his work. In all you do, keep you head! Think and consider the final outcome of sin and of righteousness. No matter how tough it becomes, know that it is worth it all to serve Jesus.
