What You Should Be Chasing As A Young Guy Or Girl

Ecclesiastes 12:1 (KJV)

Remember now thy Creator in the days of thy youth, while the evil days come not, nor the years draw nigh, when thou shalt say, I have no pleasure in them;

At this early stage of your life, it's God your Creator you ought to be chasing, not your fellow guys and girls.

The earlier you begin to do that, the better it would be for you.

It would make you avoid a lot of mistakes youths make in their lives, because they were chasing guys and girls instead.

Being your Creator, God knows what's best for you than anyone else, so if you seek after Him in your youth, He would guide you in the right path and help you to avoid such unwarranted troubles and mistakes.

So don't wait until you got older because by then you may have already made some avoidable mistakes that would have shaped your life and made it harder for you to learn at that point.

There are many inspiring stories and examples of men and women in the Bible who began to serve God from the days pf their youth, such as, Joseph, Samuel, Jonathan, David, Josiah, Ruth, Hezekiah, Esther, Daniel, Shadrach, Meshach, Abednego, Jeremiah, Mary, John the Baptist, Jesus, the first eleven disciples of Jesus, so you have a lot of examples there to chose from if you ever needed one.

I also shared a thread several years back of a Spirit-led teenager God i met in a Keke, that God sent to encourage me, which inspired hope in me about the future of the young ones, considering the amount of moral decadence that exists in the society today.

https://www.nairaland.com/6806292/what-teenager-keke-said-inspired#106806923

I have also met some other young guys and girls here in this forum whose passion and commitment to the things of God have been encouraging and such an inspiration to me.

I myself, began to serve God not long after my teenage years and i'm still hotter and on fire than ever for the Lord, several decades later.

I still wish though I had started much earlier, because I can only imagine what might have been enjoying the same relationship for much longer.

It certainly would have also helped me avoid some unwarranted mistakes, like losing my virginity to the devil (via sexual immorality). It was that close but now I have to live with that regret for the rest of my life.

I can't do anything thing now to change that fact, but could only do my best to share it and advice the youths of today, so they could learn from my personal experience and consequently avoid making the mistakes I made not serving God early enough.

God bless.

Dear seun,

Why is it that everyone can comment in a Christian thread but can't comment on Muslim threads?

Why is it that Muslim can comment on a Christian thread but a Christian can't comment on Muslim thread without asking to be converted to Islam? Why is this so? This is religious war and should be fixed ASAP!

I guess it's because the Muslim thread gets derailed almost all the time. Mostly these people are atheist or adherents of other religions. They come with islamophobic slurs and degrade the practice of the Muslims and the prophet (SAW) . The christians too get their thread infiltrated but this is not comparable to the aggression meted on innocent Muslims by virtue of their faith.

You know their religion does not encourage criticism but they'll be on Christian thread bashing Christians .

.....but in obodo naija, it's relationship, relationship, sex ,sex,sex and marriage.




All the pre-requisite that would make Marriage rosy and enjoyable left unattended to, but keep chasing shadows.


Why won't Marriages become toxic after few months?

Our youngs are quite careless and very allusive of the spiritual world.The spiritual world is real and it will always control the physical.stop living in denial and start facing reality on ground,no man jumps to the top,no man flys high and choose to Wana rule !!powers must aide you to the top and powers must keep you at the top.Young men and ladies ,stop living your lives as if you own it and can decide how to manage it the way you deem fit.There is life a after this life, a more real world for that matter,only those WHO LIVE A DECENT, HEAVENLY BOUND ,CHRIST CENTRED LIFE HERE ,makes it to that realm. CHRIST STILL CAME FOR YOUR SAKE,GOD STILL LOVES U.GD MORN GUYS
