An explanation of topics for a dialogue with young people; topics where young people have to deal with in their lives, with support of Scripture.
In the previous section; in part 1, we talked extensively about the education of young people and the influence of the Social media.
In that part came the advice of doctors that a tablet or smartphone does not belong in the bedroom.
Also the use of especially online games and the addiction to Social media was discussed extensively. In this writing, money and wealth are discussed, or as young people sometimes respond:
I want a lot of things and without money that is not possible…..
Capital or money is apparently something very obvious to many young people.
The wise King Solomon concluded that everything he had done in his life was merely the chasing of wind:
NKJV (Ecclesiastes 2:10-11) 10 Whatever my eyes desired I did not keep from them. I did not withhold my heart from any pleasure, For my heart rejoiced in all my labor; And this was my reward from all my labor. 11 Then I looked on all the works that my hands had done And on the labor in which I had toiled; And indeed all was vanity and grasping for the wind. There was no profit under the sun.
NKJV (Ecclesiastes 11: 9-10) 9 Rejoice, O young man, in your youth, And let your heart cheer you in the days of your youth; Walk in the ways of your heart, And in the sight of your eyes; But know that for all these God will bring you into judgment. 10 Therefore remove sorrow from your heart, And put away evil from your flesh, For childhood and youth are vanity.
The theme of this writing is; what is the value of money and how young people can deal with this.
