My biblical advice for young females / or males

[jennifer_bloom]

One thing God has taught me all my life is I have to trust in God and in my own service to The kingdom of God, and not in the labour and hard work of others. Like I have parents and cousins who can give me a couple hundred if I’m in need, but I have to create my own career and not ride on the coat tails of others. God has protected me for over 15 years, and the reason God protects me is that I trust in God and not in circumstances or people. Because both can change or be taken away in moments.

I'm not particularly religious but I understand there's some level of beauty in the words and lessons of the bible. Thank you for the advice, may it serve well for people, trusting the lord is no easy task but it is worth it.

Amen sister. You have great faith and the testimony of God.

Reliance on God is hard, it is an offence to our own ego to recognise that Christ truly did ALL the work and we contribute nothing but the sin that made His work necessary. That said, Jesus instructed us to look at the birds, they don't sow, they don't harvest, they don't work themselves to a burnout. God still provides them with their every need.

If God provides for the birds, how much more will He provide for us. We are worth much more to God than birds. Read Matthew 6:25-34 for the passage.

I'll conclude with this:
"Humble yourselves, therefore, under the mighty hand of God so that at the proper time he may exalt you, casting all your anxieties on him, because he cares for you."
1 Peter 5:6‭-‬7 (ESV)

The best advice I can give someone is Jesus's message when you boil it down was "love". I beat matthew 22: 36-39 like a dead horse if any body asks me to try and boil it down to one short message. Because if everyone loved God with all their heart, their soul and their mind. And loved their neighbor as they loved their self. Then this would be a heaven on earth. Try to remember God's love above all an try to be an instrument of his love always (I know it's hard but try).

[samuel665]

Well I agree with you because everyone came to this world for a purpose and that is to repent from sin and worship God with a pure heart, but to survive while doing our main mission we also need to have our own career in life.

I dont know if you are Christian or Jew, so I will try to be " nondenominational". Whatever faith you profess (people tend to forget we Christians Worship God as well), Our Success is a testament to God Almighty as he put us here to be successful, multiply and worship him. Yes, he challenges us, many, more than others, but he promised to never break us. So work to do your best See opportunity in adversity, and look for every opportunity you may find.

as a work of fiction, there
are some good lessons. but you have to get through all the incest , rape, father giving up their daughters to rapists to protect heavenly angels , infanticide, back stabbing , hypocrisy and contradiction

I view the bible as allegorical

[Philyouup]

i suppose, if the bible is an allegory for our world, it’s not a place i’d enjoy living in. luckily for me, i don’t see it as such, but i understand some do
