Do Hard Things Challenge 2

It's really easy to choose to not do more. Our own laziness, our selfishness, our "busyness" and the low expectations of others leads many of us to waste the unique years we are living in right now.

The "teen" years are unique in that they provide great opportunity, great resources, and great potential, yet most of those years are wasted because the culture around us expects you to only consume during these years and not contribute.

God expects differently from you, however.

God expects you to:

1. Be Deeply Rooted (Psalm 144:12)
2. Be Strong (Psalm 144:12)
3. Be Needed (Psalm 144:12)
4. Look Different (Romans 12:2)
5. Mature in Communication (1 Corinthians 13:11)
6. Mature in Understanding (1 Corinthians 13:11)
7. Mature in Reasoning (1 Corinthians 13:11)
8. Think instead of Experience (1 Corinthians 14:20)
9. Rise Above Low Expectations (1 Timothy 4:12)
10. Set the Example (1 Timothy 4:12)

So, don't waste these years just because are labeled or identified as one who will. Live up to God's unchanging expectations for you!
