REMEMBER YOUR CREATOR
THE SEED
“Remember now thy creator in the days of thy youth, while the evil days come not, nor the years draw nigh, when thou shalt say, I have no pleasure in them” Ecclesiastes 12:1 KJV
God, our Father, made us wonderfully and beautifully. He created the heavens and the earth, and all power belongs to Him. The angels bow before Him, and creation itself testifies to His majesty. There are countless reasons to remember God as our Creator. He made us, provides for us, and cares for us daily. For this reason, in our youthful days, when our strength and minds are vibrant, is the best time to serve Him, build a relationship with Him, and seek His Word through prayer and study. Unfortunately, many young people misuse this season of life by falling into sin, which separates them from God. Remember your Creator through joyful songs of praise, thanksgiving, and submission to His will. Worship Him in spirit and in truth, and humble yourself before Him in service and devotion. By doing so, we honor the One who gave us life and sustains us each day.
BIBLE READING: Ecclesiastes 12:1-14
PRAYER: Oh Great Creator, we praise and thank You for our lives and the world around us. Grant us the grace to always remember You in Jesus’ name, Amen.
