2 Timothy 4:6-8 6 For I am already being poured out like a drink offering, and the time for my departure is near. 7 I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. 8 Now there is in store for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will award to me on that day—and not only to me, but also to all who have longed for his appearing.

Starting the race well is relatively easy!

Finishing well is a different matter!

Unless your married to Troy Snelling!

Easy… right?

Then reality kicks in!

2 Timothy 4:1-3

4 In the presence of God and of Christ Jesus, who will judge the living and the dead, and in view of his appearing and his kingdom, I give you this charge: 2 Preach the word; be prepared in season and out of season; correct, rebuke and encourage with great patience and careful instruction. 3 For the time will come when people will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear.

Jeremiah 29:13Matthew 6:33

Apply the Lesson in your Life:

Be honest with yourself… are you on the track? Are your feet moving? What are you racing for?
