And mek-thri reason showimaot why hem gud for markem olketa goal hia taem iu young.

5. Wanem nao main reason why iumi shud markem olketa spiritual goal?

5 First reason why iumi shud markem olketa spiritual goal, hem bikos datwan showimaot iumi tinghae long wanem Jehovah duim for iumi and love bilong hem. Man wea raetem Psalm hem sei: “Hemi gud tumas fo mi talem tengkiu long yu . . . Lod [Jehovah], mi hapi tumas from olketa bikfala waka blong yu. Ya, mi singsing fo preisim yu fo olketa samting wea yu bin duim fo mi.” (Sams 92:1, 4) Olketa young wan, tingim evri samting wea Jehovah givim long iu. Hem helpem iu for savve long hem, and hem givim iu laef, Bible, kongregeson, and nambawan hope for future. Taem iu markem olketa spiritual goal, iu showimaot long Jehovah iu tinghae long evri samting hia and datwan mekem iu fren gud witim hem.

6. (a) Hao nao olketa spiritual goal helpem iu for fren gud witim Jehovah? (b) Wanem nao samfala goal wea iu savve markem taem iu young?

6 Mek-tu reason hem bikos taem iu waka hard for kasem olketa spiritual goal datwan bae mekem Jehovah hapi and datwan bae helpem iu for fren gud witim hem. Aposol Paul hem sei olsem: “God hem raeteous so hard for hem forgetim waka wea iufala duim and love wea iufala showimaot for nem bilong hem.” (Heb. 6:10) Nomata iu barava young iu savve markem olketa goal. Olsem example, Christine hem 10 year taem hem disaed for evritaem readim olketa laef story bilong olketa faithful Witness. Toby hem 12 year taem hem markem goal for readim full Bible bifor hem baptaes. Maxim hem 11 year, and Noemi sista bilong hem, hem 10 year taem tufala baptaes. Bihaen datwan, tufala evriwan markem goal for waka long Bethel. So for helpem tufala gohed tingim goal hia, tufala pasim wanfala Bethel application long walling long haos bilong olketa. Bae hem gud for tingim olketa goal wea iu laek for markem and waka hard for kasem datwan.—Readim Philippi 1:10, 11.

7, 8. (a) Hao nao wei for markem goal hem mekem hem isi for mekem olketa disison? (b) Why nao wanfala young wan disaed for no go long university?

7 Wanem nao mek-thri reason for markem olketa goal taem iu young? Hem bikos iu garem staka disison for mekem saed long education, waka, and olketa nara samting long laef. Wei for mekem disison hem olsem iu kasem tufala road wea hem meet tugeta and iu mas chusim which road for followim. Sapos iu savve wea nao iu laek go, hem bae isi for chusim stretfala road. Long sem wei tu, sapos iu garem olketa goal finis, datwan bae helpem iu for mekem olketa wise disison. Provebs 4:26 hem sei: “Planem gud wanem yu wande duim, evrisamting bae stret nomoa.” Sapos iu garem olketa gudfala goal taem iu young, iu bae kasem gud samting. Olsem example, from Damaris markem olketa gudfala goal taem hem young, datwan helpem hem for mekem important disison taem hem teenager.

8 Damaris kasem olketa hae mark taem hem duim exam for finisim hae skul. Datwan mekem hem fit for kasem scholarship for studyim law long wanfala university, bat hem disaed for duim waka wea hem bae no kasem big pei. Why nao olsem? Hem sei: “Taem mi young yet mi disaed for pioneer. Datwan minim bae mi waka part-taem. Sapos mi kamap wanfala lawyer, bae mi kasem staka selen, bat bae hem hard for mi faendem part-taem waka.” Damaris hem pioneer for 20 year finis. Waswe, hem hapi long disison wea hem mekem taem hem teenager and goal wea hem markem? Hem sei: “Long bank wea mi waka, mi meetim staka lawyer. Olketa duim waka wea mi shud duim sapos mi go studyim law. Bat staka long olketa hia no hapi witim waka bilong olketa. Disison bilong mi for pioneer helpem mi for no olsem olketa lawyer hia and mi barava hapi for duim waka bilong Jehovah.”
