FINDING TIMOTHY
Thursday, January 25, 2007
“…I thank God for you.” – 2 Timothy 1:3
Boyet and Vicky are two very good friends of mine. We worked together previously in one company yet managed to grow closer even as we pursued different career paths after our employment in the said company.
Two years ago, we decided to meet regularly and just share one another’s joys, burdens and dreams. We decided we would be each others’ support system. We committed to an honest and transparent relationship – no judgments, no prejudices. But that’s not to say that there is no admonition. We try as best as possible to help one another lead a godly life – whether through uplifting words of encouragement or stinging reminders of what is right and true.
They say you have found a treasure when you have found a good friend. Well I’ve found two. They are to me what Timothy is to Paul – people who have integrity, who can be trusted and will stand by me through anything.
In your spiritual progress, try to look for the Timothies in your life. We need to welcome them in our lives for both accountability and support. Roy M.
REFLECTION:
Who are your best friends?
Thank You, Lord, for our Timothies.
