Young Christians Calendar

A daily meditation for young Christians

“Josiah was eight years old when he began to reign…and he did that which was right in the sight of the Lord” (2 Chronicles 34:1-2).
How would you like to be king when you were only eight years old? You might think that it would be an exciting thing to be a king at that age, but I believe that Josiah realized the big responsibility that was connected with it. He probably had older men who helped him make decisions when he was young, but the Word of God records that “he did that which was right in the sight of the Lord,” even at a young age.
It is important to accept the Lord Jesus as our Savior when we are young, and then tobe able to use our life for the Lord. Josiah did not have a good father, and his grandfather was a very wicked king, yet young Josiah wanted to please the Lord. Probably none of us have fathers and grandfathers as wicked as Josiah did, but perhaps some who read this calendar are not growing up in Christian homes. If so, you can still come to the Lord Jesus, accept Him as your Savior, and then ask Him for help to do what is right in your Christian life. A good beginning is a wonderful thing, and often sets a pattern for our entire life.
