Maturity comes not with age but with the acceptance of responsibility. You are only young once but immaturity can last a lifetime!
Being a male is a matter of birth. Being a man is a matter of choice.

Men are limited by the knowledge of their minds, the worth of their characters and the principles upon which they are building their lives.

The pleasures of sin exist. We cannot deny them. But we also dare not deny what follows in their wake: a voracious appetite, inflamed with eroticism, demanding more indulgence more often until a degenerative spiral captures the soul and drags us on a never ending descent into deeper patterns of immorality and illicit behaviour… Lust goes beyond the sexual. Lust can show itself in a variety of forms: covetousness, gluttony, drunkeness, power hunger, or unbridled ambition, to name a few
The man who seeks to please God is the man who people are pleased with. The man who seeks to please others won’t satisfy anyone.
The more you build your life on principle and less on personality – yours or others – the straighter will be your course.
