As Christians, we can expect God to bring people into our lives who will help us become better servants. When we are ready, He will also use us in others lives, so that we can have a positive influence on them. Pastor Ed tells us today, that Paul and Timothy are an example of this. Paul influenced Timothy in his ways, and as a result, Timothy became a great leader who could go out in Paul's place. From this we learn, that we should be on the lookout for Godly people who can help us grow in our walks.
