Monday 1 Timothy 3:4 I must manage my own family well, with children who respect and obey me. Tuesday 1 Timothy 3:5 For if I cannot manage my own household, how can I take care of Your church? Wednesday 1 Timothy 3:6 I, as an elder, must not be a new Christian, because I might be proud of being chosen so soon, and the Devil will use that pride to make me fall. Thursday 1 Timothy 3:7 Also, people outside the church must speak well of me so that I will not fall into the Devil’s trap and be disgraced. Friday 1 Timothy 3:8 In the same way, I, as a deacon, must be a man who is respected and has integrity. I must not be a heavy drinker and must not be greedy for money. Zingers from Croft M.
