  • Rejoice, O young man, in thy youth; and let thy heart cheer thee in the days of thy youth, and walk in the ways of thine heart, and in the sight of thine eyes: but know thou, that for all these things God will bring thee into judgment. Eccl. 11:9


    Therefore remove sorrow from thy heart, and put away evil from thy flesh: for childhood and youth are vanity. Eccl. 11:10


    Remember now thy Creator in the days of thy youth, while the evils days come not, nor the years draw nigh, when thou shalt say, I have no pleasure in them. Eccl. 12:1


    Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man. Eccl. 12:13

     

    For God shall bring every work into judgment, with every secret thing, whether it be good, or whether it be evil. Eccl. 12:14

     

    Let the words of my mouth, and the meditations of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, 

     

    O LORD, my strength, and my redeemer. Ps. 19:14

     

    For we walk by faith, not by sight. 2 Cor. 5:7
