August 1st, 2024 by Pastor Solley2 Tim 1:5-6 When I call to remembrance the unfeigned faith that is in thee, which dwelt first in thy grandmother Lois, and thy mother Eunice; and I am persuaded that in thee also.
6 Wherefore I put thee in remembrance that thou stir up the gift of God, which is in thee by the putting on of my hands.
KJV
This morning we see the Godly influence of a grandmother and mother on Timothy. They brought Timothy to the Lord and made Christ a priority in their lives as well as his. (2 Tim 3:15
And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus.) Few are the children that have this advantage today as many if not most parents are willing to make everything but Jesus a priority in the lives of their children and grandchildren. Sports, clubs, events, all come before Jesus in the lives of most children today and those things are made a priority by parents. Timothy never played on a traveling sports team, never was the head of the club, but he learned of Jesus, was saved, served his savior, and is in heaven today. That is what making Jesus a priority can do for your children as well.
