Make it your ambition to lead a quiet life, to mind your own business and to work with your hands, just as we told you, so that your daily life may win the respect of outsiders and so that you will not be dependent on anybody
RESPECT, what a powerful word, how do get respect? Do we automatically expect to receive it or do we earn it, well many men claim that they should be respected just because we are men, not so fast. The greatest way to earn respect is to give it, live a life that pleases God, treat people as you want to be treated, work hard at everything you do. Serve the lord, your church, your neighbors and yes even your enemies. Lead by example, respect is not given it is earned. Remember how your actions reflect your life and character.
Every Man struggles in life. Our external lives may be in order, but storms of uncertainty, unprocessed conflicts, loss and fear are causing many men flocking to unhealthy avenues of relief instead of turning to God’s Word and each other.
