The Mark of Maturity:
Maturity is understanding the direction God has planned with a positive attitude.
Internal growth is the most difficult phase of maturity.
Stretching your faith strengthens you faith.
Faith is a key ingredient in maturity.
Weak faith sees dangers at every turn; strong faith sees God’s sufficiency at every turn.
Moderation is a positive form of maturity.
Demanding is the harsh side of immaturity.
Most bad choices are decisions not to control your weaknesses.
Maturity causes you to choose joy over happiness.
Making youthful mistakes in old age is still unwise.
Making wise choices in your youth saves you a great accumulation of pain.
An old fool is a good example of the development of a young fool.
Season youth with maturity for balance, and sparkle your old age with a dash of youth.
Doing right often requires more effort, but the rewards leave no tragedy.
Spiritual maturity is learning to focus on the prize.
Everyone wants to be right, when they are doing wrong!
You can never earn the right to do wrong.
Ignorance only explains bad behavior once.
Maturity means God’s presence makes good sense.
A step in the right direction is a step away from sin.
“Jesus loves me; this I know,” makes more sense to our youth, than thousands of the rock songs that are designed to rock their faith!
Maturity may not keep you from failure; but it will help you to recognize it!
Your friendship circle, represents your greatest threat to do either good or evil!
A Smoky Mountain HI
Here is a journey I make each day. Time flows on this side of eternity. I have aged as gracefully as reasonable as can be be expected, and yet feel not a day older in my mind. As I begin a life in the Smoky Mountains I hope you will share my journey as well. www.kleincabin.com
