Being a Man of God -1 Timothy 6: 11,12

God looks for those that are His men and His women too to run His disciples race His instruction given to Timothy are for all to live for God planted in His grace Flee fast from the ways of this world run as your life is all that will matter take hold by faith of the promises of God seeking godliness lived out not just chatter Righteousness is to be our pursuit a life filled with faith love and wonder as well as steadiness and courtesy rejoice in God who drew us from earth's plunder Run hard in earnestness and speed looking to the glory which will be your prize seize eternal life from the hand of God which you were called to when Jesus did rise Before many witnesses, you took your calling with fervency, you did eagerly embrace God's way filled with trust in His word looking to the day you'll see His face (But you, Timothy, man of God: Run for your life from all this. Pursue a righteous life—a life of wonder, faith, love, steadiness, courtesy. Run hard and fast in the faith. Seize the eternal life, the life you were called to, the life you so fervently embraced in the presence of so many witnesses.') 1 Timothy 6: 11,12 (The Message)
