As Paul closes his letter to Titus he tells him that he is sending either Artemas or Tychicus to Crete to give Titus the opportunity to come to Paul. But Paul also is aware that Zenas and Apollos will be traveling through Crete as well. Knowing these travel situations Paul wants Titus to point out to the believers that hospitality towards such believers is a good work. Providing what the travelers’ needs is an expression of the fruit of Christ working in our lives. That requires sacrifice of time, resources, and space. But it is also a means by which God may provide a blessing to the traveler as well as the hosts.
