SCRIPTURE
1 Tim. 4:7-13 [Message]
7 Stay clear of silly stories that get dressed up as religion. Exercise daily in God—no spiritual flabbiness, please! 8 Workouts in the gymnasium are useful, but a disciplined life in God is far more so, making you fit both today and forever. 9 You can count on this. Take it to heart. 10 This is why we’ve thrown ourselves into this venture so totally. We’re banking on the living God, Savior of all men and women, especially believers. 11 Get the word out. Teach all these things. 12 And don’t let anyone put you down because you’re young. Teach believers with your life: by word, by demeanor, by love, by faith, by integrity. 13 Stay at your post reading Scripture, giving counsel, teaching. 14 And that special gift of ministry you were given when the leaders of the church laid hands on you and prayed—keep that dusted off and in use

Father,
No matter how I grade myself or others grade me, I know I'm not at 10 in any of the categories, so work a work in me.

Use me to touch others lives with my own.
