Consider This...

Don’t let the excitement of youth cause you to forget your Creator. Honor him in your youth before you grow old and say, “Life is not pleasant anymore.” (Ecclesiastes 12:1 NLT)

Youth is a time to party, have fun and live without a care...right? Well, it is true that when you are young you ought to have fun and dream big, but following God should be the central purpose of your life no matter what your age. When your health is good, your mind is sharp, and your energy is endless, that's the best time to invest everything you can in the cause of Christ. Every day you put off being serious about serving Jesus is another day closer to the things that are the inevitable distractions that come with "grow[ing] old."
