Scripture and a Prayer: “Being A Living Example”

“Let no one despise your youth, but be an example to the believers in word, in conduct, in love, in spirit, in faith, in purity.” (1 Timothy 4:12)

Prayer:

Lord, while we may no longer be young, I pray we can be a living example of You and of Your love, grace, and mercy in everything we say and in all that we do. Throughout this life we have had many trials, troubles, and difficulties. And You have seen us and have comforted us through them all so that we can comfort others with this same comfort. But, to do this, we must realize that living this life isn’t about us and what we want, it is all about You and what You want. Therefore, Lord, help us be those living examples of You in all that I say and do. AMEN
