And now, Admonition.

We love it when people share that way. We love it when someone shares the last piece of cake, last biscuit on the plate. Some of us are better at sharing than others. Some of us, it just comes naturally. It’s just something we do. We share with people. Some of us, it doesn’t come naturally. We have to give thought to it and we have to desire to share and we don’t like it when somebody forces us to share.

But Paul encourages Timothy to share something with him, not what you’d expect. Verse Eight of Second Timothy Chapter One, he says, therefore, do not be ashamed of the testimony of our Lord nor of me his prisoner, but share with me in the sufferings for the Gospel. Are you sharing in those sufferings? Are you suffering for the cause of Christ? Share with me, won’t you.
