God Will Teach You What Others Refuse To

1 John 2: 27
"27 As for you, the anointing you received from him remains in you, and you do not need anyone to teach you. But as his anointing teaches you about all things and as that anointing is real, not counterfeit—just as it has taught you, remain in him."

Youths in the church are looked down on a lot by older members. They are labelled because of their foolish youthful actions which these older members deem "unacceptable". Instead of trying to correct the youth and lead them down the right path, they spread rumours about them this one minute, and the next minute are in their faces smiling and saying "God bless you". Many youths sit and think to themselves "Why won't they give us a chance to prove our strength?". "If they don't like what we do, why don't they teach us what to do?". This is a sad, yet true fact.

Those are very good questions to ask, especially the latter. These people have the knowledge and skill and wisdom, yet they sit and criticize instead of teach. That is one of the reasons youths are rebellious and don't want to stay in church. There is too much judgement of the youths. Many youths say " I wish I knew what to do, but i don't have anyone to teach me." If you're a youth with these thoughts, there is someone who is more than willing to teach you- the Holy Spirit. 
John 14:16- "But the Advocate, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things and will remind you of everything I have said to you."
This scripture shows the holy spirit being a teacher. He will teach you all you need to know. He not only teaches, but empowers you as well. In old days, the elders of the church would take the youths under their wings, and share their wisdom with them. Nowadays, the elders are not so much into teaching youth, but rather finding faults with their youthful actions. Youths are willing to learn, but they are not being taught by elders. That doesn't mean that they still won't learn anything. What the church fails and refuses to teach, the holy spirit will teach. If you commit yourself to being used by the holy spirit, there's no limit to the great things you can achieve. 

Yes people will talk and say all manner of things against you, even the very people whom you expect to be prime examples in the church. That shouldn't stop you from being the power-packed young person that you were destined by God to be. You were created to be great, and no matter what obstacles are before you now, you are still going to end up being great. Your latter will be greater than your former. Just have faith in God, and allow his Holy Spirit to direct you.
