Titus 3:8-14New Revised Standard Version (NRSV) 8 The saying is sure.
I desire that you insist on these things, so that those who have come to believe in God may be careful to devote themselves to good works; these things are excellent and profitable to everyone. 9 But avoid stupid controversies, genealogies, dissensions, and quarrels about the law, for they are unprofitable and worthless. 10 After a first and second admonition, have nothing more to do with anyone who causes divisions, 11 since you know that such a person is perverted and sinful, being self-condemned.
Final Messages and Benediction12 When I send Artemas to you, or Tychicus, do your best to come to me at Nicopolis, for I have decided to spend the winter there. 13 Make every effort to send Zenas the lawyer and Apollos on their way, and see that they lack nothing. 14 And let people learn to devote themselves to good works in order to meet urgent needs, so that they may not be unproductive.
Happy Friday brothers and sisters,
Paul's desire for Titus are the same desires that we should have for ourselves. We should make it our aim to follow the rules at work, in our community that are set by those in authority, be obedient to God's word, be ready to do good work and deeds for one another, and not speak evil of one another. ;These few desires can change our day and our lives as well as those we come in contact with if we accept and apply them. I pray that today you go and make your work profitable for the Kingdom in the name of Jesus, amen.
I love you as I love God.
