Take pains with these things; be absorbed in them, so that your progress will be evident to all. I Timothy 4:15
Paul had just encouraged Timothy to be a good example, exhort and teach with the Scripture and use his spiritual gifts given to him. Not just a little bit, or once in a while, but with great vigor. Taking pains and being absorbed are the indicators that something completely controls our lives. We see it in sports, in education, in business. Let's make it happen in our discipleship. Taking pains and being absorbed to do our very best.
