How can a young person stay pure?
By obeying your word and
following its rules.
It's a real struggle for people to be clean on both the inside and the outside. Regarding the outside, people are pretty conscious about their personal hygiene and grooming. In fact, there are those that would stand in front of the bathroom mirror for what may seem like forever just to make sure everything is clean, prim and proper. Keeping one's spiritual life clean requires the same kind of diligence. We should look in the mirror daily with the Word, cleansing our hearts and minds in obedience to God. James 1:23-24 teaches us, “For if you just listen and don't obey, it is like looking at your face in a mirror but doing nothing to improve your appearance. You see yourself, walk away, and forget what you look like.” Put in the time and effort to work on your spiritual life, just like you would put the time and effort into your physical appearance.

so true. If we soak ourselves with God's Word and follow it diligently, the people around would sense His presence in us.
Let us be God's mirror.
AMEN!
GOD BLESS!
