12 Let no one look down on your youthfulness, but rather in speech, conduct, love, faith and purity, show yourself an example of those who believe.
13 Until I come, give attention to the public reading of Scripture, to exhortation and teaching.

What an amazing section of Scripture... When I was younger I would look a the first part of this verse for encouragement, now that I am not so insecure about my age I love the content of the rest of the verses as well.
Help me to be an example for those around me. Whether that is at home, work or in the community. I want my actions, speech and thoughts to exemplify Christ wherever I go. This morning I also noticed the internal portion of this verse, "love, faith and purity" all all internal. Only Christ really knows what is happening in my heart. Help me to serve Christ with all of my actions and thoughts!
These short thoughts have helped me to meditate on Scripture every day...mostly for me, but you can look in too!
