“LABOR IN THE WORD!”
1 Timothy 5:17
“Let the elders who rule well be
counted worthy of double honor, especially those who labor in the word and
doctrine.”
Today in the United States as well as in some other
countries, we celebrate Labor Day. That is rather a misnomer since it is a day
away from labor and the last day of summer vacations.
Paul is writing to his son in the faith, Timothy and
admonishing him as well as all who read his letter that honor is due the elders
who labor in the Word of God. I am here to tell you that it is often hard to
dig deep in the Word to find the meaning and purpose God has designed for us to
reveal.
I have never found it a hard and meaningless task to
search the bible for answers. It is like being on an exciting treasure hunt
that has a valuable prize just waiting to be discovered. It often takes time
and effort, but the rewards are worth it.
If you are not laboring in the precious word of God, I
challenge you to make a start. Devote a set time each day to read and meditate
on the word that brings light and salvation to a lost and dying world, then
share it with others.
Blessings dear hearts. May God richly bless you
as you bless others by your words and actions!
