1Ti 4:12 Let no man despise thy youth; but be thou an example of the believers, in word, in conversation, in charity, in spirit, in faith, in purity.

It is such an encouragement to meet other young people here who are following all these principles! I read this scripture today and I immediately thought of here. Be encouraged! Let's glorify God in all our conversation! Amen.

I hope I posted this in the right section ;) I know it's only a short post, but I just felt the need to share! :)

I think it was a great post, and very encouraging to many of the forum members.

Be careful of your thoughts; guard your mind, for your thoughts become words. Be guarded when you speak, for your words turn into action. Watch what you do, for your actions will become habits. Be wary of your habits, for they become your character. Pray over your character; strive to mold it to the image of Christ, because your character will shape your destiny.

Ideas can germinate from the smallest seeds. Collect those seeds, and let them grow in the back of your mind. You may be surprised by what finally blooms.

When God takes something from your grasp, he's not punishing you. Instead, He’s opening your hands to receive something better. The will of God will never take you where the Grace of God will not protect you.

I adore that piece of Scripture.

Of course. You've been hanging around the Hemingway thread too much. ;)
