What is important to you as a Christian youth?

[Carnold23]

As our youth are our next generation of Christians what is important to you? And what does it mean to you to be christian?? And how can we better support our christian youths in their daily lives?

As a Christian youth, you should follow and practice God's word, you should have compassion and empathy towards other people, specially to the poor, always show kindness, always praise and worship God, preach the Gospel, and tell the world about His love.

 

[StFrancis]

As Christian youth we are supposed to be seen as good examples in whatever we do in our societies. We must be good leaders whenever we have been selected to lead. We must be prayerful so that God can help us in this world full of temptations. We are also supposed to be close to our friends and family to help when they need our help.

As Christian youth, we need to live the word of God and allow our light to shine for all to see. We need to radiate kindness and compassion to those who need it. We need to spread God's word and share His love with everyone. To me, being a Christian means being a part of something bigger than myself. It means showing dedication and following Christ even when it goes against the social standard. To support each other, we must encourage each other to pray and to live with God in our hearts.

What we have is the, “I don’t need to generation.” I don’t care! The farmer hadto feed his animals, milk his cows, hofeed or this chickens yada yada. You get, I did not ask to be born!

Here is a message you don’t really have needs … but you are needed… we have the option to dwell on our needs…endless as per marketing and advertising. However the creator of the word has enormous issues and needs. To work God needs you to cooperate, to do what is necessary to make this perfect and w/o you it isn’t getting done.

However the creator of the word has enormous issues and needs. To work God needs , really needs us to cooperate, to do what is necessary to make this place we live a perfect place and w/o you it isn’t getting done.

So the one thing that’s important is that the creator needs us to make it perfect so we can all eventually dwell here… our cooperation is vital to that success.

I can’t really answer for anyone else. When I was in youth group era of my existence, there were not really any other people going my direction spiritually. I could have joined them, but that would have meant purposefully changing my direction. So I spent most of my time with “old” people when the opportunities came around for me to make my own choices. It wasn’t that I never tried to join them, it seemed more like I made them uncomfortable. I took Scripture too seriously. I’ve had the same kind of response no matter where I end up.
So that is where I’m coming from when I say, what the youth need is a changed desire. Not a desire for comfort, a desire for something (a relationship with Christ) that is worth leaving behind what seems to be worth keeping for the only thing worth having.
How do you change that? Pray for them. Talk to them. Love them. But high in that list is be real. If you are a phony and don’t measure up to your dream for them, they won’t give it a second look. Put simply, if you’re not as sold out for God as God wants you to be, they will see you for what you are, half-baked, and it will be hard to help them.
