Boy or Man

December 7, 2011 By dschenk Leave a Comment

When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put childish ways behind me.

I Corinthians 13:11  NIV

Boys want Do Overs

cry when they don’t get their way

think the loudest wins

threaten to take their ball and go home

Boys take all the sex that any girl will give them.  That is passive.

Men learn how to say NO how to tell themselves and the girl WAIT.

BOYS TAKE, MEN GIVE

Boys practice hard when they feel good, or when they think that coach is watching them.

Men practice hard all the time to gain an edge in the game

Boys put themselves first

Men put the team first

Boys let a bigger guy rebound over them

Men learn how to position their body and hold their ground and draw the foul

Boys say why did he throw that bad pass

Men hustle down the court and make a big block

Boys whine about bad shots that their team mates take.

Men say, works for me and grab the offensive rebound and score.

Boys  question coach and say that their offensive will suffer if they have to deny the ball to the scorer on the other team.

Men get in, give the extra work on defense and shut down the guy scoring all the points for the other team.

Boys only know how to take

Men have learned how to give.

There are plenty of overgrown boys, and not that many men.

Song of Solomon Study

This is the story of a young girl as she encounters sex, love, romance, marriage and relationship with a guy. She starts out thinking that maybe she is good looking and might be acceptable to a guy. She becomes strong and confident in who she is and in her ability to bring contentment to her husband. A major part of the book is written in her voice: What she says, what she thinks, what she hears him saying. This little book in the Bible can provide some powerful insights.
