Keep Their Way Pure

How can young people keep their way pure? By guarding it according to your word. With my whole heart I seek you; do not let me stray from your commandments. I treasure your word in my heart, so that I may not sin against you. Blessed are you, O LORD; teach me your statutes. With my lips I declare all the ordinances of your mouth. I delight in the way of your decrees as much as in all riches. I will meditate on your precepts, and fix my eyes on your ways. I will delight in your statutes; I will not forget your word.

Psalm 119:9-16

How can young people begin their lives clean and pure? By taking heed of the Word of God. And if you missed the message when you were young, it is still true, no matter what age you come to Christ.

Seek to measure your own thoughts, feelings, and behavior by God’s Word, not the other way around.

Your life can be quiet and steady behind the scenes. Your life can challenge us to hide God’s Word in our hearts and let is guide our lives.

The Bible: Know it in your head, stow it in your heart,

show it in your life, sow it in the world.
