Teaching With Purpose
The purpose of my instruction is that all believers would be filled with love that comes from a pure heart, a clear conscience, and genuine faith. 1 Timothy 1:5
I love it when a plan comes together. The Bible tells me that Jesus had one for me. He wanted me to succeed and to find hope for an amazing future. He knew that the HOPE was connected to Him. Fortunately, life's storms and hard times seemed to carry my ship in His direction and every time I cried for help, I cried for Jesus.
In communities of faith all over the world many things are taught. So many of them seem to divide people, upset them and even cause them to walk away from faith. In today's Word we can clearly see that His plan for teaching is that people would leave satisfied...filled with love...love that shows up because the teaching does not condemn and is filled with faith. Our words as teachers must build people up and point them in the right direction. Our methods may be different but the Word is the constant: stable and steady and able to stand up against anything that comes against it.
Keep looking for Jesus and you are sure to find Him...perhaps even in places that you never expected too:)
