9 Youth destiny or destiny for All. Remember Your Creator While Young. Elesiastes 11:-10, 12:1- Vs.&8. Solomon enourages us to rejoie in everyday but to remember that eternity is far longer than a person s lifespan. Teah us to number our days aright, that e may gain a heart to isdom. Psalm 9:12 The ise person does not just think about the moment and its impat; he/she takes the long-range vie toard eternity. Approah Your deision from God perspetive.

10 Youth Destiny or Destiny for All. E. 11: 9&10 We often hear people says, It doesn t matter, but many of your Choie ill be irreversible. They ill stay ith you for a lifetime. What you do hen you are young does matter. Enjoy life no, but don t do anything Physially, Mentally, or Spiritually that ill prevent you from enjoying life hen you are old. A life ithout God an produe a bitter, lonely, and hopeless old age. A life entered around God is fulfilling.

11 Youth Destiny or Destiny for ALL Cont A life entered around God is fulfilling. Isaiah 40:30-31, Even youths gro tired and eary, and young men stumble and fall; but those ho h0pe in the Lord ill rene their Strength.

12 Youth Destiny or Destiny for ALL Cont. When disabilities, sikness, and handiaps ause barriers to enjoying life, e must satisfy beause of the hope of eternal life. Being Young is exiting. But the exitement of Youth an beome barriers to loseness ith God and ommunity if it makes young people fous on Passing pleasures instead of eternal value. Make your Strength available to God and ommunity hen it still yours- during Your Youth Years (Y3) Don t aste it on evil or meaningless ativities that beome bad habits and make you allous.

13 Youth Destiny or Destiny for All Cont Seek God No. E. 11:4, Waiting for perfet onditions ill mean inativity. This pratial insight is espely appliable to our Spiritual life. If e ait for the perfet time and plae for personal Bible reading, it ill never begin. If e ait for perfet hurh, e ill never join. If e ait for perfet ministry, e ill never serve. Take steps no to gro spiritually. Don t for onditions that may never exist.
