Why young people are tired?

"I do not know? Have you heard?" The eternal God, the Lord, the Creator of the ends of the earth, neither powerless nor tired. His understanding is unsearchable. He gives strength to the weak and those who could have no force more.

Even youth grow tired and weary, and young men fall, are completely, but those that wait upon the Lord renew their strength, they come up with wings like eagles, run and not be weary;You go and not be tired. "Isaiah 40: 28-31

"And in a window sat a young man named Eutychus, who fell into a deep sleep. He was overcome by sleep, and as Paul continued, fell from third floor and was picked up dead." Acts 20:09

We live in interesting times. I often see young people seem so bored and so tired, so devoid of life ... When it comes to something for the Lord and for others.

When I seethem back to my past and I remember how nice it was when I met Jesus Christ. I remember when I have to be ready to suffer for him, and misunderstood as a phenomenon because my Savior. Today I see is the opposite, and I see the older generation will live longer and happy to serve Christ. Why is it so?

I took the example of Eutychus and I noticed that some things are young people that transcends time and culture as the real characteristics.

First,is the need of continuous activity. It 'happened has happened then and now: teenagers love to do something or to make a difference as long to see. We can not bear reflection and meditation are seen with their iPod, their MP3 players, their laptops, etc.

Eutychus was the same, much of what was happening on the road, and at the same time, he was "feeling" the words of the Apostle Paul concerns. It was late at night, and preferred to watch from the darknessoutside and people were chatting, playing, fighting, screaming children and all were interesting like this ... much more interesting than the word of God

Teenagers today can not endure a sermon is longer than 10 minutes and throughout that time they are chatting with their friends and send text messages on their mobile phones. They are more concerned about the world as God and his kingdom.

Secondly, they want comfort. The teenagers of today need the right conditions to go to schoolGo to church or a mission trip to go. Need good food, accommodation perfect, cool clothes, a nice bike (or a high-performance car) and after starting the test when their duty and go to the youth. They have always enjoyed the best seats and no one, but it deserves.

There was a time when a young man gave a seat on a bus or train to an elderly person, but today, that an old story. Everything about themand parents to do this are not "not" and "irresponsible love."

Eutychus was looking for the best place, not too close to the pulpit and very comfortable for a man like tired. Everything he thought was his comfort and peace, and perhaps a little 'to listen to the Apostle Paul. In a sense he did try to be there, but he did not try hard enough.

Thirdly, how they live on the edges. Young people push things to extremes. You wantTo know how far to go without sin. They want to know what the joys of the world, enjoy it without the grace of God This is a very dangerous way of thinking, and risk losing their spiritual life.

Eutychus was leaning on the wrong side. He tried to hear what the world and talk about what was the word of God to say at the same time. This has been a greater effort of his ability and so it happened that you felt the direction he was leaning. Jesus said:"No man can serve two masters" ... A compromise or life is a life of destruction, and sooner or later fall Living like this.

I'm not ready to rise so pessimistic and say that the power of God can a soul fallen again. This is the story of Eutychus happy ending '. What will your story end?
