Daily Devotional--3/1/10

1 Timothy 4:12

¹²Don't let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an example for the believers in speech, in life, in love, in faith and in purity.

• Why would Paul encourage Timothy, as a spiritual leader, to resist any criticism of his young age?
• Is it age or something else that Paul says "really matters?"
• Of the charter traits listed in verse 12, which of those would you say you model best? Which one is your weakest?
• Ask the Lord to help you grow in these areas as you model your faith to others.
