In the First Epistle to Timothy we are taught some practical ways on how to live by working & serving others. The Epistles to Timothy & to Titus are called "Pastoral Epistles" written to people who pastored the church & Apostolic representatives sent out to help plant churches, once established, they ordain leaders & move on. Paul was very old when he wrote this to Timothy, his son in the faith & protege, leading a church at Ephesus. All of us are to lead some way or the other to influence the world with our lives, keep a close watch on yourself first & on the teaching (4:16).

God cares for everything in our lives & God is a God who is very practical as shown in Timothy. Every part of our lives should be touched to be a blessing. Jesus is the perfect example of touching lives. There are so many Christians today who are so spiritually minded & so practically useless. May you enjoy life to its fullest in all the blessings God has given you. Impact lives. Be Christ-like.
