As believers, we desire to stay strong in our walk with God. We want an active, growing, “long-haul” Christian journey. But, this is easier said than done. As the years roll on, many grow discouraged and loose their heart for Jesus. Some even throw in the towel completely and abandon the faith. In our passage today Paul gives some encouragement in this matter. We’ll learn form his example and his words to Timothy two essential components to promoting a healthy relationship with God. If we take his advice, we can be better equipped to stay the course for the duration of our lives. 1 Timothy 1:12-20
