May we never forget that all the verses in the bible from the smallest to the biggest are all wonderful. I have merely  quoted a few verses from the book. Never underestimating the power of the rest of the verse of this wonderful letter of  Paul. or of this Book in its entirety but just mentioning a few ,for us to Glance upon and evaluate ourselves

A few verses per Chapter 1 to 4


1Ti 1:5  Now the end of the commandment is charity out of a pure heart, and of a good conscience, and of faith unfeigned: 

1Ti 1:6  From which some having swerved have turned aside unto vain jangling; 

1Ti 1:7  Desiring to be teachers of the law; understanding neither what they say, nor whereof they affirm. 

1Ti 1:8  But we know that the law is good, if a man use it lawfully; 

1Ti 1:14  And the grace of our Lord was exceeding abundant with faith and love which is in Christ Jesus. 

1Ti 1:15  This is a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief. 

1Ti 1:16  Howbeit for this cause I obtained mercy, that in me first Jesus Christ might shew forth all longsuffering, for a pattern to them which should hereafter believe on him to life everlasting. 

1Ti 2:1  I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men; 

1Ti 2:2  For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty. 

1Ti 2:3  For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour; 

1Ti 2:4  Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth. 

1Ti 2:5  For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus; 

1Ti 3:2  A bishop then must be blameless, the husband of one wife, vigilant, sober, of good behaviour, given to hospitality, apt to teach; 

1Ti 3:3  Not given to wine, no striker, not greedy of filthy lucre; but patient, not a brawler, not covetous; 

1Ti 3:4  One that ruleth well his own house, having his children in subjection with all gravity; 

1Ti 3:5  (For if a man know not how to rule his own house, how shall he take care of the church of God?) 

1Ti 3:16  And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory.

1Ti 4:1  Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils; 

1Ti 4:2  Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron; 

1Ti 4:3  Forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from meats, which God hath created to be received with thanksgiving of them which believe and know the truth. 

1Ti 4:4  For every creature of God is good, and nothing to be refused, if it be received with thanksgiving: 

1Ti 4:5  For it is sanctified by the word of God and prayer. 

1Ti 4:9  This is a faithful saying and worthy of all acceptation. 

1Ti 4:10  For therefore we both labour and suffer reproach, because we trust in the living God, who is the Saviour of all men, specially of those that believe. 

1Ti 4:11  These things command and teach. 

1Ti 4:12  Let no man despise thy youth; but be thou an example of the believers, in word, in conversation, in charity, in spirit, in faith, in purity. 

1Ti 4:13  Till I come, give attendance to reading, to exhortation, to doctrine. 

1Ti 4:14  Neglect not the gift that is in thee, which was given thee by prophecy, with the laying on of the hands of the presbytery. 

1Ti 4:15  Meditate upon these things; give thyself wholly to them; that thy profiting may appear to all. 

1Ti 4:16  Take heed unto thyself, and unto the doctrine; continue in them: for in doing this thou shalt both save thyself, and them that hear thee. 

1Ti 5:1  Rebuke not an elder, but intreat him as a father; and the younger men as brethren; 

1Ti 5:2  The elder women as mothers; the younger as sisters, with all purity. 

1Ti 5:3  Honour widows that are widows indeed. 

1Ti 5:4  But if any widow have children or nephews, let them learn first to shew piety at home, and to requite their parents: for that is good and acceptable before God. 

1Ti 6:1  Let as many servants as are under the yoke count their own masters worthy of all honour, that the name of God and his doctrine be not blasphemed.

1Ti 6:11  But thou, O man of God, flee these things; and follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, meekness. 

1Ti 6:12  Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses. 

1Ti 6:13  I give thee charge in the sight of God, who quickeneth all things, and before Christ Jesus, who before Pontius Pilate witnessed a good confession; 

1Ti 6:14  That thou keep this commandment without spot, unrebukeable, until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ: 

1Ti 6:15  Which in his times he shall shew, who is the blessed and only Potentate, the King of kings, and Lord of lords; 

1Ti 6:16  Who only hath immortality, dwelling in the light which no man can approach unto; whom no man hath seen, nor can see: to whom be honour and power everlasting. Amen. 

1Ti 6:17  Charge them that are rich in this world, that they be not highminded, nor trust in uncertain riches, but in the living God, who giveth us richly all things to enjoy; 

1Ti 6:18  That they do good, that they be rich in good works, ready to distribute, willing to communicate; 

1Ti 6:19  Laying up in store for themselves a good foundation against the time to come, that they may lay hold on eternal life. 

 

 do refer to your BIBLE'S always.

the Absolute Assurance

It is easy to speak about the Eagle, but to be trained to be one is never a pleasing experience.

We all or at least most of us like to be under the assurance that we not alone, We like to blend in the group ,like to fly among the flock. 
 
But once you reach the fullfilment of being that one eagle hight never matters.       

Perhaps in it's training from its birth it (the Baby eagling),might have  wounder , why ?
does it's mother drop it down helplessly to the ground always,

We might too wounder when we face life,

Do ,I really have it in me to face this. we just might or might not at that time.

However it is in the constant falling that The Good Shepherd formes in us the rear wings of the Eagle 🦅, and after each fall we have come with absolute assurance  that father will come sweeping Down to us no matter what.            
 

It is the Lord that   strengthens us, 

   let him do his magic in us. Ealding to something, is never easy,but be glad that you are in your Father's arms.
