We Are Young


People normally say,"You're too young to do this.......you're too young to do that." Yes we are young, but that doesn't mean you have to look down on us right? We may be young, but what matters the most is that whether we are matured.
True, maturity comes with age, but maturity also comes with understanding. Different events happen to different people, and different people go through different matters in life. Events and matters both affect the maturity of a person. The most important of these is decision, in the events and matters we go through, we will face many things including rejection, betrayal and many other things, will affect how fast we mature. Let's say you are rejected by people, it is to choose to understand why they do so or you take it personally.
I learned understanding in the early stages of my life, where I was rejected by people because i was around many adults which always lead to, you're too young and stuff like that, betrayed by friends and left alone in many cases. And I learned understanding through 1 Timothy 4:12- Don't let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set ans example for the believers in your speech, in life, in faith and in purity.
Friends, though you may always hear those things but elderly people aren't always leaders, for example Josaih, he became king at the age of 8 but he lead his people with the right methods and in the right ways, or may be even Jeremiah, God told him that his calling was to be a prophet, but he told God, I am too young, he was afraid that people won't listen to him because he was just a young boy. So friends, we can make a difference even though people say that we're too young, we can make an impact in people's lives, and most importantly, God uses not just old people, but young ones as well.
I hoped this entry has blessed you in ways only God knows.

God Bless You
