Satan spreads special snares for the young, and to youth, the attractions of the world are especially attractive. When people grow older they learn much of the vanity and vexation of spirit which is in the world, but generally speaking, the young see only the gilded side of life. They think that the world will prove to be much happier and brighter than is really the case.
Now, dear young Christian readers, in these words,
“The entrance of Thy words giveth light; it giveth understanding to the simple,” (Psa. 119:130130The entrance of thy words giveth light; it giveth understanding unto the simple. (Psalm 119:130)), you have a golden text.
With the Word of God for your guide, you will be saved from the wiles of Satan and the delusions of the world. It is only as heeding the Word of God that you can receive divine wisdom for daily life, and thus be saved from the sorrow of lamenting over having spent hours and days in a wrong path.
May your hearts be subject to the Word of God, and so shall the light of His truth guide your steps.
