21 Days To A Teenager’s Spiritual ChangeSample

Houston, We Have a Problem!

I don't know about you, but I make mistakes and sin. Sometimes it's on purpose, but everything that's connected to the sin makes me uncomfortable and I don't like it. I came to terms with the fact that I am not perfect. I am aware of my imperfection, that’s why I don’t treat myself seriously, and I have even learned to laugh at myself.

I'm in a process. Each day spent in relationship with Him changes me and leads to maturity. God knows what I'm like and what I go through, that's why He leads me toward His perfection by taking away my imperfections.

Someone once said, “Sin attracts the devil the same way rotting rubbish attracts the flies. Get rid of the trash, and the flies will move to the places that stink more.” So, be cautious of what you do, of what you watch, and listen to, because rotting rubbish attracts flies and the improper conduct attracts problems. Remember the words of Paul, “I have the right to do anything, but not everything is beneficial. I have the right to do anything, but I will not be mastered by anything.”

The Bible says that we are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, and God’s special possession. Does your behavior show your Godly identity? Does your behavior confirm this identity? Or maybe you need to change something, give something up?

Prayer: Lord, thank you that when I come to you, I am no longer alone. Thank you, that when I have problems I can ask you for help and you respond. I ask you for strength to overcome temptations. Help me live a godly life. Amen.  

Challenge: Open your heart before God and tell Him about everything that is hidden at the bottom of your soul. Then promise to change and ask Him to help you. I know it is difficult, but in exchange, you will be heard.
