One of the most exciting things about being a youth is that you can do so much in those years. Some people use those times to engage in secular entertainment, adversely affecting them later in life. Others use those years to know God more intimately, which pays off later in life. Choices are more powerful than what statistics say.

God can make you wise also, if and only if you ask Him (see James 1:5). Why? Because God wants more people to be impacted by His Word. So, don’t be satisfied with constantly receiving from the Lord’s servants; also, be conscious of giving out gracious words to others.

Are you questioning why many ideas you’ve kept conceiving in your heart haven’t been turned into fruition? It is not because they aren’t good. But there’s a higher providence in God called God’s purpose for your life. That thing supersedes every plan you make. So, it is actually better to consult God to show You His plan for your life so you can use that revelation to make your plans, rather than planning and bringing it to God to validate it for you.

Proverbs 19:15 tells us that laziness brings on deep sleep, and the shiftless (idle person) goes hungry. That means a person is bound to go hungry when he subjects his life to laziness.

How many people walk around every day wanting to get what their fellow friends have? They see a fellow having a car and start envying the person. Really? Where is that contentment spirit that prevented people from following unreasonable ideas?
