“Our youth occasionally need to be reminded that they are not just receivers and takers of what is offered at church, but they can and need to be givers and suppliers.” —Sister Bonnie L. Oscarson

Our Church leaders have encouraged us again recently to have a 72-hour emergency kit for our family. These kits are designed to help us immediately after an emergency occurs. Of course, not all emergencies are man-made or disasters on a national scale. Some emergencies are caused by food shortages, power failures, bad weather or supply chain delays.

By creating an Emergency Kit for your home it will help you meet basic needs immediately after a disaster. It should be tailored to each family and updated as your family situation changes.

Families are encouraged to counsel together to plan the contents of their 72-hour kits. A go bag should contain the basics such as ready-to-eat food, water, first-aid kit and medicines. Whatever our circumstances we are encouraged to prepare towards completing the kit working within our budget.

Dear Youth,

I know it can be fun, cool, thrilling, and exciting sometimes. Truth is, I've been there, too. Though my past is not that colorful, I didn't drink, smoke, go to wild parties, get hook up to one relationship to another, be on affair or third party and be on trending videos revealing myself, I am not greater than you.

I consider myself a worst sinner still. (Just like what Paul said on 1 Timothy 1:15)

I've had previous decisions from my past that I still regret and hoped that my younger self shouldn't have done it.

"Break the rules."
"You only live once."
"It's just a one mistake, no one will be affected."

You do it now, you regret later. Sin looks fun in the beginning, but it will leave you empty and guilty in the end. The more that you play with the fire and think that you're strong enough to handle it, the more that you'll feel yourself so lost until you can't go back anymore.

Temptations and worldy affirmation from social media or from your friends will not fulfill you. I know that there's something in your heart that no one else can fill. Even if you've had a lot of achievements, praises, relationships and money, you know for yourself that you're not happy.

I understand.

You get pressured by your peers because you fear of being alone so you do it.
You desire the fame and praises that you get from people.
You see your value from a lot of men/women who adore you.

But you don't need to go with the flow just to be accepted. God accepted you already. He values you. He's thinking of you. And He's longing for you.

I hope that you don't waste your time doing the things that are temporary but on things that are eternal and worthy of your calling.

You can stand out. You're called. You don't need to belittle yourself just because of your age, God is able to use you.

"Teach us to number our days, that we may gain a heart of wisdom." Psalm 90:12

Seek wisdom while you're still young. Be humble and be teachable. Forgive your past self and learn from it so you can avoid unnecessary pains, it will help you grow mature in faith.
