ADVICE FOR THE YOUNG
By: Samuel Bolaji
(1) Realise you are an awakening personality & take as much interest in the development of your soul as your physical development. The most important thing in life is CHARACTER & Jesus is the master architect of character. Cleverness may get you to the top but only character will keep you there.
(2) Find a cause to which you can give
yourself wholeheartedly. Ask God to lay a burden on your heart for a cause that fits your abilities. Whatever you do, serve somebody if you are to be a healthy personality, as Jesus Himself did (Matt 20:28).
(3) Set clear goals for yourself - don't drift. Some people allow circumstances or friends to dictate what they do in life. Don't react - act.
(4) Do the little things & God will give you bigger opportunities.
(5) If you feel marriage is for you, pray about your choice of a life partner. Base your choice on something note than a physical attraction. Godliness ought to figure high on your
list. Ask yourself: Will i still be in love with this person when sexual desire has diminished?
(6) Don't aim for leadership but concentrate on being a servant. "Whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant," said Jesus (Mark 10:43). If God wants you to be a leader then He will make you one, but remember, the best leaders come from the best servants.
(7) Begin every day by committing its affairs to. Take time to pray & read the Scriptures. (8) Learn the benefits of discipline. A disciple is someone who is disciplined. You may have to delay & wait for some things, but the wait will build CHARACTER into you & DEVELOP TRUST in God.
(9) Respect those who are older than you; seek, listen & weigh their advice.
(10) Don't be impatient if you can't produce change overnight. Perseverance also helps to build character & remember, character is the big word in God's economy. Concentrate on being who God wants you to be & God will place you where He wants you to be.
BE ENCOURAGED! DON'T GIVE UP
With God all things are still possible!"
