I can't help it I'm just a teenager!

Did you know that in the Bible it never talks about teenagers?

It only specifies children and adults.

Our world has taught us that if you are a teenager it's okay to fight with people or be rude. I mean, we are only teenagers!

But like I said the Bible never talks about teenagers.

So when you're faced with a decision, are you going to act like a child or an adult?

  1. Ruby, great post! I know a lot of adults that need to ask that same question...including myself sometimes!

  2. Very true statement, Ruby! Teenagers sometimes get the boot, but like you said, which way are you going to react to the true test of how a teenager is going to grow into an adult or stay a child. I am a friend, and old college mate of your dad's. I am now a children's pastor in Virginia. Love to see tweens and teenagers helping to shape your generation. Keep it up!!

  4. Ruby, thank you for sharing this insight. I never even thought about that perspective. The closest the Bible comes to talking about teens is when Christ was 12 years old, He broke away from His parents to hang with the scholars and teachers in one of the temples to learn from them, but also to challenge their intellect. Awesome post
