Light Reflection-2 Timothy 4:1-2 Preach the Word
JOHN SHIRK – Today’s Light Reflection is from Second Timothy 4, verses 1 to 2.
The Apostle Paul was mentoring Timothy to become a thriving leader in the early church. Before his life ended on earth, he gave these final instructions:
“In the presence of God and of Christ Jesus, who will judge the living and the dead, and in view of his appearing and his kingdom, I give you this charge” Preach the word; be prepared in season and out of season; correct, rebuke, and encourage-with great patience and careful instruction.”
The Gospel is the word that has the power to transform lives and bring people into God’s kingdom of light. This world is in need of good news, and through the testimony of Jesus, good news is available. Acts 13:38 says, “Through Jesus, the forgiveness of sins is proclaimed to you.”
This Light Reflection inspires us to proclaim this good news wherever we go in the Year to Shine.
