Christian Devotional – December 25, 2013

MERRY CHRISTMAS to EVERYONE!

VERSE:

1 Timothy 3:5–If anyone does not know how to manage his own family, how can he take care of God’s church?

TRUTH:

This chapter deals with the leadership positions within a church. Yet this verse explains that it is not just about leading the church, but is also about managing their own family. Ministers and other leaders within the church must remember that they are to manage their own families as well. We must never get so caught up in the ministry that God has for us that we neglect the family God has provided for us.

RESPONSE:

Father, help me never lose sight of Your priorities for my life. You first, my family second, and Your ministry third. I will follow You and teach my family to do the same.
