1 Timothy 4:12

[Virtuous.Princess]

hello wonderful ppl! how are you guys doing? well...this is one of my personal favorite verses from the bible:

" don't let anyone look down on you for being young. instead make your speech, behavior, love, faith & purity an example for other believers. "

i personally feel that all of us ( youth ) should always strive to carry ourselves in a way that would make god proud regardless of our age. i don't think that bcuz your young, that u should just not care about your actions. i hear alot of ppl say, well i smoke bcuz, hey! that's what u do when your this age. noooo, i don't think so!

how do u guys feel about this verse?

Amen! if we carry the attitude that we aren't doing the task at hand for anyone but God, then it will give us a whole new outlook on the task

There's a verse related to that in Jeremiah 1:


Then said I: “ Ah, Lord GOD!
Behold, I cannot speak, for I am a youth.”

But the LORD said to me:
“ Do not say, ‘I am a youth,’
For you shall go to all to whom I send you,
And whatever I command you, you shall speak.
Do not be afraid of their faces,
For I am with you to deliver you,” says the LORD.


I just love that verse. I don't know about you, but I have been put down so many times because of my age. My opinions disrespected because "obviously, at your age, you can't have experienced anything, and so you know nothing." But God doesn't play favorites with his people, not by age or race or gender. He can use the youngest, weakest, silliest of us to change the world.
