We shouldn’t be afraid to see some of Paul’s humanity. He wants to know that he wasn’t wasting his time in all the teaching, in all the experiences he went through. He wants to know that people heard the message of Christ, that people heard the gospel, that people grew.
And our heart then, as the readers of this, and as the hearers of many messages in our lifetime, should be to make our leaders, our teachers, our spiritual elders, proud in this same way. Wherever we have any kind of spiritual parent, that spiritual parent loves to see their spiritual children doing well.
So are we holding fast to the word of life, my friends? Having started well, are we continuing well? Let us evaluate ourselves and always hold ourselves up to the standard set by scripture. Not so that we’ll feel any sense of condemnation. No. Just to give us something to strive towards.
Lord Jesus, we would like to make our spiritual teachers proud and you proud our Lord, that we are following the way that you have taught us. Please help us in our endeavours. Amen.
