An Example of the Believer

“Let no man despise your youth; but be you an example of the believers, in word, in conversation, in charity, in spirit, in faith, in purity”

                                                                                      1Timothy 4: 12

 This scriptural verse always inspires me to be “an example of the believers.”As a member of the true Church, it is our responsibility to be an example not only to members of the Church but also to the people around us by reading the scriptures, obeying His commandments and daily prayer. We can all be examples to others and show what the Church and gospel teach us.  In our world where temptation and sin are great especially among the youth, it may be hard for me to be an example to my neighbors. But because of this scripture, it helped me to have faith in God that He will sustain and guide me to stand for what is right and true.
