10 Pieces of Advice for Every Young Person (and old person!)

I came across these tonight. They are from my study of 2 Timothy a few years ago when I was preparing for a Family Camp at Barakel.  They seem to be fairly relevant for today…

• Don’t ever be ashamed of doing the right thing.
• Don’t ever be ashamed of doing the thing God gifted you to do.
• Don’t ever grow tired of doing the thing God gifted you to do.
• Be very ashamed of following the wrong pursuits.
• Be very ashamed of following the wrong people.
• Finish the race.
• When you are absolutely positive about who you are, it is no longer embarrassing to act like yourself.
• If you are not content to let people think you are wrong, you will embarrass yourself by pursuing silly arguments.
• Embarrassment for Christ’s sake is far better than popularity for my own sake.
• A Christ-centered life will never bring me shame.
