Called While You Are Young
Let no man despise your youth; but be an example to those who believe, in word, in your way of life, in love, in spirit, in faith, and in purity.
There is a lie that says God is waiting for you to finish school, get a job and settle down before He can use you. Paul writes the opposite to a young man leading a church.
Timothy was not told to wait until he was older. He was told to be an example now — in how he spoke, how he lived, how he loved, and how he kept himself pure.
Your school is not a waiting room. It is your first mission field.
Pray
Lord, use me where I am. Make my words, my life and my purity an example to the people around me today.
