My advice to younger generations is to seek God’s wisdom through prayer and reading, studying, and listening to God’s Word daily. By doing this, He will enable us to discern between good and evil. I am an 83-year-old blessed father of three boys and 10 grandchildren, who reads the Bible and prays every morning, asking God for wisdom, discernment, and some gifts from the Holy Spirit (Galatians 5:22–23).
My advice goes beyond the younger generations. Parents, grandparents, relatives, and friends have a great potential to positively influence children and teenagers. Mature people can often detect certain gifts and talents in younger people. Old folks can encourage younger people by guiding them in the right direction, supporting them in various ways, advising them, or even providing some financial assistance in their education.
