A Righteous TeacherII Timothy 2:21-25 Flee from the evil desires of your youth, Go after the righteousness and the truth; Pursue faith, love, peace, in your prayers, Go to the Lord with a pure heart to share; Put away your foolishness causing strife, Living with honor and respect in this life; As a servant of the Lord you do not strive, But be gentle thanking God you are alive; Teaching righteously while being patient, In meekness to tolerate of things indecent; Your attitude might change their thought, Causing them a repentance that it ought. You reflect your values when others see, A mirrored image of all your personality; For as we talk we can actually profess, In showing others how God does bless; More than just our body as a fleshy shell, What type of person those others can tell; For as we speak we show our true colors, A righteous teacher our faith shows others.
