God wants us to grow sound qualities!

Qualities of a Sound Believer        Titus 2:2-10  NKJV

2 But as for you, speak the things which are proper for sound doctrine:  that the older men be sober, reverent, temperate, sound in faith, in love, in patience; 3 the older women likewise, that they be reverent in behavior, not slanderers, not given to much wine, teachers of good things— ⁴ that they admonish the young women to love their husbands, to love their children, ⁵ to be discreet, chaste, homemakers, good, obedient to their own husbands, that the word of God may not be blasphemed.

⁶ Likewise, exhort the young men to be sober-minded, ⁷ in all things showing yourself to be a pattern of good works; in doctrine showing integrity, reverence, incorruptibility,^[ sound speech that cannot be condemned, that one who is an opponent may be ashamed, having nothing evil to say of you.

⁹ Exhort bondservants to be obedient to their own masters, to be well pleasing in all things, not answering back, ¹⁰ not pilfering, but showing all good fidelity, that they may adorn the doctrine of God our Savior in all things.

Thus, older men should be helping younger men to grow in Christlikeness.   Older women should be helping younger women to grow in Christlikeness.  Those who are older have great things to share in this process.  

They should be sharing LOVE.  The young need a love that shadows that of the Father.  They need to know what love truely is, how to have it, and especially how to walk in it.

They should be sharing STORIES.  The young need to hear, over and over, great testimonies of God's provision and protection.  They need to hear how God overcame our struggles, to help us walk with Him in every way.

They should be sharing PRAYER.  The young need to be prayed for today, even more so than at any other time in history.  They need a prayer warrior on their side.  One who lifts them up, knowing that  only by the power of God will these young ones become the disciples Jesus desires them to be.

They should be sharing FRIENDSHIP.  The young need a friend who listens, cares, and will be an honest, patient, and wise counselor when called upon. 

Be that person who helps others grow sound qualities which reflect Christ.
