Jesus, tell him all about our struggles. I promise he will hear our faintest cry and answer by and by! Now, let's dive into the Book of 2 Timothy 3:12-17 for some hints of hope. Paul, the author, wrote this letter to his dear friend Timothy. He knew that his time was coming to an end, and this was his way of expressing it. Paul shared his thoughts on fighting the good fight, staying faithful, and finishing the race, knowing that a crown of righteousness awaits him. It's worth noting that Paul wrote this letter while he was imprisoned in Rome, with no hope of release. In the midst of his own struggles, Paul encourages Timothy by reminding him that GOD IS FAITHFUL! Even when life gets tough, God remains loyal, trustworthy, and unchanging. He warns Timothy about the challenges that will arise in the last days, not just external calamities, but the moral decay of society. And let me tell you, the ongoing pandemic has truly revealed people's true nature, with some valuing economic gain over saving lives. But here's the thing, these last days have been ongoing since Christ's first coming. Each day brings us closer to His return, and it's up to us, as believers, to navigate this time while we wait. So, what's the key? It's simple, really. 13
