Paul told Timothy, "Don't let anyone look down on you because you are young." (1 Timothy 4:12). Evidently, certain people in the early church thought Timothy was too young and inexperienced to be in leadership. But Paul thought differently and so did God. Cecil G Osborne wrote, "A young child has no clear picture of himself ... A child who's told repeatedly that he is a bad boy, or is lazy or no good, or stupid or shy or clumsy will tend to act out this picture which the parent or some other authority figure has given him." Let God and God alone, tell you who you are and what you should do. Get His opinion, for in the end it's the only one that counts! Live the life for which God created you!
Day 190 - Enjoy God! Read Psalm 148; Proverbs 7:4-6; Revelation 9; 2 Samuel 21-22 2 Samuel 22 v30 - By God, I can run against a troop and by my God, I can leap over a wall v33 - God is my strength and power! He makes my way perfect! Reading the above verses warmed my heart as I recalled the sweet victory I had as I trusted God when He assured me exactly with the above verses way back in 1994 when I did my Certificate of Legal Practice (CLP). It was the first day of exam and my Quiet Time for that day turned out to be reading the above verses. What a joy! What an assurance! I knew by God and with God, I could leap over CLP examination and would cross over the challenge and would pass to do my chambering. True enough, I passed and started my chambering in 1995. All glory to God! Hence, how important for us to keep reading God's Words as our loving Heavenly Father is so eager to speak and communicate with us. Please do run to Him, embrace and enjoy the sweet communion and taste...
