Let us draw upon some of the richness of the sacred Scriptures, since they often speak of young people and of how the Lord draws near to encounter them. In an age when young people were not highly regarded, some texts show that God sees them differently. Joseph, for example, was one of the youngest of his family cf. Gen , yet God showed him great things in dreams and when about twenty years old he outshone all his brothers in important affairs cf. Gen In Gideon, we see the frankness of young people, who are not used to sugar-coating reality.

Samuel was still a young boy, yet the Lord spoke to him. As a result, he became a great prophet who intervened at critical moments in the history of his country. King Saul was also young when the Lord called him to undertake his mission cf. King David was chosen while still a boy. When the prophet Samuel was seeking the future king of Israel, a man offered as candidates his sons who were older and more experienced. Yet the prophet said that the chosen one was the young David, who was out tending the flock cf.

The glory of youth is in the heart, more than in physical strength or the impression given to others.

Yet the audacity of youth moved him to ask God for wisdom and he devoted himself to his mission. Something similar happened to the prophet Jeremiah, called despite his youth to rouse his people. But the Lord told him not to say that cf. The devotion of the prophet Jeremiah to his mission shows what can happen when the brashness of youth is joined to the power of God. A Jewish servant girl of the foreign commander Naaman intervened with faith and helped him to be cured of his illness cf.

The young Ruth was a model of generosity in remaining beside her mother-in-law who had fallen on hard times cf. Ru , yet she also showed boldness in getting ahead in life cf. Ru Yet his thoughts of independence turned into dissolution and excess cf. Nonetheless, he found the strength to make a new start cf.

Young hearts are naturally ready to change, to turn back, get up and learn from life. How could anyone fail to support that son in this new resolution? Yet his older brother already had a heart grown old; he let himself be possessed by greed, selfishness and envy Lk Jesus praises the young sinner who returned to the right path over the brother who considered himself faithful, yet lacked the spirit of love and mercy.

Jesus, himself eternally young, wants to give us hearts that are ever young. In a word, true youth means having a heart capable of loving, whereas everything that separates us from others makes the soul grow old. Let us also keep in mind that Jesus had no use for adults who looked down on the young or lorded it over them. For him age did not establish privileges, and being young did not imply lesser worth or dignity. Young people are not meant to become discouraged; they are meant to dream great things, to seek vast horizons, to aim higher, to take on the world, to accept challenges and to offer the best of themselves to the building of something better.

In the silence of their heart, they have a store of experiences that can teach us not to make mistakes or be taken in by false promises. It is unhelpful to buy into the cult of youth or foolishly to dismiss others simply because they are older or from another generation. Jesus tells us that the wise are able to bring forth from their store things both new and old cf. Mt A wise young person is open to the future, yet still capable of learning something from the experience of others. We should never repent of spending our youth being good, opening our heart to the Lord, and living differently.

Late have I loved you! Mk On the other hand, in the Gospel of Matthew we find a young man cf.

Yet his spirit was not really that young, for he had already become attached to riches and comforts. He said he wanted something more, but when Jesus asked him to be generous and distribute his goods, he realized that he could not let go of everything he had. He had given up his youth. The Gospel also speaks about a group of wise young women, who were ready and waiting, while others were distracted and slumbering cf. We can, in fact, spend our youth being distracted, skimming the surface of life, half-asleep, incapable of cultivating meaningful relationships or experiencing the deeper things in life.

In this way, we can store up a paltry and unsubstantial future. Or we can spend our youth aspiring to beautiful and great things, and thus store up a future full of life and interior richness. To be sure, many other passages of the word of God can shed light on this stage of your life. We will take up some of them in the following chapters. Mt on a cross when he was little more than thirty years of age cf.

Lk It is important to realize that Jesus was a young person. That ending was not something that simply happened; rather, his entire youth, at every moment, was a precious preparation for it. The last images we have of Jesus as a child are those of a tiny refugee in Egypt cf. Mt and repatriated in Nazareth cf. Our first image of Jesus as a young adult shows him standing among the crowds on the banks of the Jordan river to be baptized by his kinsman John the Baptist, just like any other member of his people cf.

Jesus immediately appeared filled with the Holy Spirit, and was led by the Spirit into the desert. There he prepared to go forth to preach and to work miracles, to bring freedom and healing cf. Between these two accounts, we find another, which shows Jesus as an adolescent, when he had returned with his parents to Nazareth, after being lost and found in the Temple cf.

Lk ; he did not disown his family. In a word, this was a time of preparation, when Jesus grew in his relationship with the Father and with others. His adolescence and his youth set him on the path to that sublime mission. Still, it must not be thought that Jesus was a withdrawn adolescent or a self-absorbed youth.
