Youth : Who are you?

We, young people, want everything immediately, but usually we don’t think about the consequences, because the world in our minds seems to be much simpler than it actually is!

The desire to be accepted by others makes us run away from whom we really are. When we are compared to others it makes us want to be like the other girls that are admired, makes us want to at least have the opportunity to talk to that lovely young man we’ve been observing, we desire the same financial conditions as our colleagues, and even to have the family our friends have who apparently are happy!

Because of that we ended up disappointed, because we desire what is far from reality!

But let’s stop to think for a minute! Who am I? What do I like? What do I want in my life?

Would I actually be fulfilled if I could have everything that my eyes desire?

Of course not, do you know why? True realization begins inside of you, and if you can’t accept yourself, than no one can do it for you! You can be the most beautiful and admired girl, but if you look at yourself in the mirror and don’t see this beautiful girl, all the praises you receive are useless.

Dear friend, I wanted to be strong, well accepted, developed, and I compared myself to a lot of the other girls my age. I thought less of myself and I only managed to overcome this when I set a goal, and do you know what it was? It was to get to know myself and discover my true potential! And you know how I did this? I made God my true friend! He helped me discover who I truly was and what I really needed, He taught me to overcome my fears and to go further than I ever thought I could, He made me see myself as someone special!

Test Him now, talk to Him and tell Him all your secrets, sorrows, dreams and ask Him to help you figure out what you really need, and you will see that some answers will be immediate! But be objective and set a goal as to what you want!

  1. Dear Mis. Viviane

    It is true, ” when we are compared to others it makes us want to be like the other girls that are admired”. I rember when I grow up my grandmother used to compar me with other girls in my street and every time i will try to be and do what the admired ones used to do, but at the end of the day I was not like them and will not be like them for God made us different so I will end up disappointed at myself of not being like them or what my grandmother wanted me to be. However as I read this message I relays that trying to be other makes you sed and of one to be happy about her self is when one knows who she is and admire that she is urge.
    Thank you of the message.

  3. Desiring what others have just because one wants to fit in is not approximately good. The word of God says we should seek the Kingdom of God then everything will be added on. This verse isn’t meant for adults only but also the youth. If we have God in us. He will give us our heart’s desires. That’s if our heart’s desires are according to His will.
