Dear fellow Christian  millennials,

How do you do. I'm sure that you, just like me, have heard all of the complaints that the previous generation has with us. We're lazy, we have entitlement issues, we're over emotional and spoiled. But I have a secret to tell you; our grandparents were saying the same things about our parents and our great-grandparents were probably saying the same things about our grandparents. The problem is that younger people are looked down upon because of our lack of experience and thus seeming lack of wisdom. But experience doesn't always mean wisdom. You can be old and foolish too. Wisdom comes from fearing (having respect for) God. Seek wisdom with all your might. Embrace it and love it. Ask God for wisdom and he will give you wisdom. It is worth more than all the wealth in the world! Have a good work ethic, hard work will produce great profit. Serve the Lord, not money. Don't think that getting a 9-5 job to just pay the bills is God's will for you. Don't be afraid to think outside the box, and listen to those who lovingly correct you and seek counsel from your trusted elders. But most importantly, "do not let anyone look down on you because you are young, but be an example to all believers by how you live, what you say, your faith, and your purity." 1 Timothy 4:12
