Message
Youthful stage in life is a period of hyperactivity, curiosity and risk-taking, being characterized by very high physical emotional and intellectual energy levels. Unfortunately, many youths waste these enormous resources, being deluded in their pursuit of vanity of this life. Vanity is any goal, dream or career that is not in accordance to God’s plan for our life, no matter how beautiful or ‘rewarding’ it might seem to be.
Many youths are confused about their career choice. You can prayerfully approach your counsellor for career guidance, and by God’s grace the confusion would be removed. The school counsellor will help you to know your area of interest and guide you appropriately. If you are no yet saved, approach God for His mercy for salvation which will expose you to all guidance from God. The pursuit of academic qualification remains critical for the development of the world, so, acquire education. However, you should develop yourself beyond academic qualification. Are you a child of God? Seek His face on the course you can study for a successful future career.
