For The Strength of Youth

Being a teenager is tough;  hormones, assignments, teachers, peer pressure, and the dual fear that  (1) you will never be old enough to make decisions, and (2) in a few short years, you really will be out of your parents home and will need to be ready to take on new adventures. What is a teen to do?  How can a teen make the most of these years?  Enter a booklet that my church has made, specifically for the youth of today, containing words of wisdom from modern day Prophets, called "For The Strength of Youth." It. Is. Awesome. In just a few paragraphs for each topic, teens learn about God's plan of greatness for them, and how to achieve peace and happiness.  The topics are as follows: 

Agency and Accountability 

Dating  

Dress and Appearance 

Education 

Entertainment and Media  

Family   

Friends  

Gratitude 

Honesty and Integrity  

Language 

Music and Dancing 

Physical and Emotional Health  

Repentance  

Sabbath Day Observance  

Service 

Sexual Purity 

Tithes and Offerings 

Work and Self-Reliance 

Go Forward with Faith 

I know that if teens, and anyone for that matter, were to follow these simple, direct instructions, the world would be a better place.  I am so grateful that my children have access to this divine council.  Happy Sunday.
