Message
Mom, I want to change the colour of my hair. It is the new style in town now”, said Gladys. She was so enthusiastic about it, but the mom said “No” “Please mom, all my friends are doing it; I don’t want to be left out” Gladys begged. But the mom insisted that she would have no such things. She then explained to Gladys that the fact that everyone is doing something does not make it right. Has any of your friends ever said, “Just do it! No one will ever find out.” Deep down, you don’t have a good feeling about what they are daring you to do. Then, just to convince you, they add, “Everyone is doing it!” You started wondering if it is really wrong. It doesn’t seem that bad, and no one will find out anyway.

The world is filled with so many things seeking the attention of children- worldly games, cheating in examination, deceitful acts, immorality, bad dressing, gangsterism, corruption and bad character.
You don’t need to learn the hard way and end up with regrets! Always say no to the things God and your parents have forbidden. Next time someone tells you to do wrong, say that it is sin and try to stay away from people who want you to disobey.
PRAYER: Heavenly Father, give me the courage to say no to bad influences around me.
FURTHER READING: Proverbs 14:12
1. Admit that you are a sinner. "For all [humans] have sinned, and comes short of the glory of God....[and] the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord" (Romans 3:23)
2. Repent now. "Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out ...[for] if we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness " (Acts 3:19, 1 John 1:9)
3. Believe that God loves you and Jesus died for you. "God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet Sinners, Christ died for us" (Romans 5:8)
4. Invite Jesus into your life through prayer of faith. Jesus says, "Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me" (Revelation 3:20)
