Teenager After God's Heart

I've made a decision to be a teenager after God's heart. You can make that life changing decision now. You don't have to advanced in age to serve God faithfully.

Ecclesiastes 12:1 Remember also your Creator in the days of your youth, before the evil days come and the years draw near of which you will say, “I have no pleasure in them”


 Who is a Teenager After God's Heart?
1.  One who is seeking the will of God
Your life will be sweeter, more productive if you know God at this age. Ask: What am I wired to do?
It is the will of God that you will excel. Stop following the crowd. You are programmed to do something. Find it out. This is the age of decision. Any decision you make today as a teen will either make or mar you. Your fulfillment in life is in finding, knowing and doing the perfect will of God.

2. One seeking the pleasure of God
How happy is God in that thing you are doing? Is God smiling at that thing you are doing? A teenager after God's heart seeks to please God. We have a biblical example, David.

Acts 13:22: After removing Saul, he made David their king. God testified concerning him: 'I have found David son of Jesse, a man after my own heart; he will do everything I want him to do.'

  
Whatever it is you do, seek God's pleasure in it.

3.  One seeking the kingdom of God
Matthew 6:33: But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.

Kingdom seekers are great achievers. Let us become addicted to the kingdom. If you seek after the kingdom of God, you will find it and be satisfied. There is joy, friendship, oneness, money, fun (yes even fun). Seek God early

4.  One seeking to belong to the family of God with his talent, strength, gift and money.

Still I Rise

“You may write me down in history With your bitter twisted lies You may trod me in the very dirt But still, like dust, I’ll rise” The above is an excerpt from the poem ‘Still I Rise’ by Maya Angelou one of the most renowned poets of all times. I just love this woman (She’s late by the way…tears). This poem is a personal favourite. In the course of our struggle, success story we will encounter setbacks- fact. We’ll experience disappointments, betrayals, failure. But it’s all meant to make you greater, give you a new strength and increase your wisdom. So do not lament over issues instead give joy and thanks for it is another opportunity to learn something new, break records and refine yourself. Yes, I am aware it’s not easy during times of difficulty but you have to learn to have a resilient spirit that says, “No matter what happens, how big the obstacle is, how tired I may seem, I will not give up, I will not let the problem overcome me. I shall conquer, possess and achieve greate...

Inspiring Poem

Did you know that the month April is recognized as World Poetry month. In honour of this and also because I'm a poet, I'm publishing a self-written poem titled, I'm a Youth. The poem identifies the carefree lifestyle of youths of this generation. I wrote this poem through accumulated experiences, how I feel at times as well as what I see in many youths. Hope you are inspired; Poem: I'm a Youth I'm a youth This means I'm young I'm growing and developing I'm a youth This means I can be shy I can be immature I can do insensible things I'm a youth My mum says I'm strong headed I love to do things myself and take orders from no one. I'm a youth My dad gives me responsibilities I grumble, groan and cant wait to be in the company of my friends. I'm a youth This means I'm always concerned about my looks- shape, clothes, hair I try to be updated on the latest trends. I'm a youth I love to list...

Who is a Christian youth

Hey guys! Its Teenella reporting live from her bedroom😉. I just started this blog and I've been thinking nonstop what I should write about.  I wanted to write some kind of mission statement. But it didn't seem appealing to me. So I've spared you the weary talk. 📝 I'm not saying mission statements are boring or. Unimportant. I'll do it later. Instead I'm going to explain what it means to be a christian youth. Two words here: Christian and youth. Definitions: Christian- a religious person who believes Jesus is the Christ and who is a member of a Christian denomination. Youth- a young person (especially a young man or boy) literally a Christian youth is a young person who is a follower of Christ. But I believe there's more to it than just a young follower. Surely it has a deeper meaning. What's you're understanding of a christian youth? To be continued....
