S – But as for you, exercise self-control in everything, endure hardship, do the work of an evangelist, fulfill your ministry

2 Timothy 4:5 CSB

O – Paul turns the crosshairs and puts them directly on Timothy for this statement.  “Self Control” – be sober, watch all that goes on.  “Endure hardships”- persevere in affliction trouble in all things daily.  “Evangelist” – be prepared to share the gospel.  “Fulfill your ministry” – accomplish your service daily.  

A – This is a great challenge for us today.  We can relate to all of this.  Sharing the gospel doesn’t have to be  a message behind a pulpit.  It is something we share though our lives – our words and actions.  We can do this!

R – Lord, help me to do this today.
