S: Ephesians 6:21-22
21 Tychicus, the dear brother and faithful servant in the Lord, will tell you everything, so that you also may know how I am and what I am doing. 22 I am sending him to you for this very purpose, that you may know how we are, and that he may encourage you.
O: Tychicus is one of those people who just gets a small mention in the Bible – in this case, 5 times. Each time, he’s mentioned in some supporting capacity for Paul, We don’t know a lot about him, but it’s clear that Paul trusted him to carry out the various tasks he had assigned to him.
There are many other people like this. We can’t all be a Billy Graham or Daniel Ho or even a local church pastor, but we can be faithfully serving Jesus out of the limelight. And at the end of it all, we’ll still hear Jesus saying “Welcome, good and faithful servant” even if few others know our name.
A: I need to be serving the Lord in whatever opportunity he’s given me.
P: Father, help me to be faithful to you and to serve you, whether in little or much. In Jesus’ name, amen.
