[Be An Example!!!]
"Let no one despise your youth, but be an example it the believers"
- 1 Timothy 4:12a
I don't exactly know how your story with salvation goes, but I know mine is and was awesome! It was kind of weird in a way though. People who prayed for me to become saved, doublted my salvation when God did answer their prayer and my need.
I got into a deep discussion one night with one of my really close relatives after I was saved. All he kept saying was that he hoped "it" lasted (sarcastically) when I told him I would never ever turn my back on God.
Now, over a few years later, God has changed my life in so many ways I would have never even imagined. So Christians reading this, DON'T let other people get you down or steer you wrong, no matter who they are.
Instead of listening to the world and it's lies, listen to God. Be an example to the others. Don't be afraid to keep living for Him, even if people say it's not real or won't last. God will never give up on us, so therefore, don't give up on Him.
God is amazing! He can use you no matter how young you are, no matter how old you are, no matter who you are, and no matter where you are. And remember, He shows favoritism to not one person. It plainly says that in His Word in Galatians 2:6. So don't let the world decide your future, but let the God that loves YOU take control.
Diving Deeper:
Study Matthew 7:1-3. Are you suppose to judge others? Then, are they suppose to judge you? Judging isn't left up to us, but Him whom is up above. We have no right to judge other people, and remember that they have no right to tell you how you are going to end up. Only God knows your future. So, don't listen to Satan because he'll just try to get you down. Follow God's commands and His will, and you won't ever go wrong.
