A Whole Life

They say I have my whole life to live the dreams of my youth, but what defines a ‘whole life?’ and long must if be for you to tell that it truly has been a whole life?Without each individual part contributing to it, there wouldn’t be a whole life.  Say you wake up each day and think, well I have the whole rest of my life to follow God, but then what? Days, weeks, months, and years go by, and what was once your “whole life” is nothing more than a broken memory full of regret. Shall we wait until we are old before we decide to the live the life we were called to?

1 Timothy 4:12 says “Do not let anyone look down on you because you are young.” If you have an idea that could change the world, and you are 17, 18, 21 years old, whatever it is, don’t hold back. Our passion is to be with Christ because he had compassion on us. Stand up for what is right, and don’t let go of your dreams. Just look at Joan of Arc.

Although, I don’t recommend burning at the stake.
