The Grands Letter

Dear Grands,

Psalm 119:9-11, “How can a young man keep his way pure?

By keeping it according to Thy word.

10 With all my heart I have sought Thee;

Do not let me wander from Thy commandments.

11 Thy word I have treasured in my heart,

That I may not sin against Thee.”

Although this passage is addressed to a “young man,” it

may also be translated “a youth, a young person.” The

principle of purity applies to all young people. And the

secret to purity lies in keeping the Word of the LORD.

If we really want to be free from our evil ways, we have

to follow the teachings of the LORD, as they are in the

Bible. We have to treasure His teachings far more than

we treasure anything or anyone. The situations in which

we find ourselves –situations that we dislike—are because

of our sin. If we are honest, we will admit this is so. But,

as we follow His path for us –a path that is found in

Scripture—we will be freed from self and sin and love

Christ Jesus as He loves us. He has a good and clean plan

for our lives. We pray you will find and follow His plan.

We love you and pray for you every day,
