Mature People Are Usually Loyal
The L stands for loyalty
The L stands for loyalty. Talk to mature people. Mature people are loyal. They hang in the relationship. Even though there is a relational sticking point, they hang in there and crash through quitting points. They break down barriers. They hang in the local church when the going gets tough. They hang in the vocation when things seem insurmountable. Mature people are loyal. They trust others. They trust leaders. We serve a loyal God. Have you ever just taken a step back to consider how loyal God is to you and me? I think about the number of times that I have disappointed God in my life. And he is still loyal to me. He still loves me. I am the crown of Gods creation. If God hadnt made Ed Young, there would be a hole in history, a gap in His creative order. And the same is true of you. And that is how loyal our God is to us. And he expects us to be loyal to others and to institutions and especially to the local church.
P stands for purity. We are to live a pure and holy lifestyle before God. You know a lot of people dont talk about holiness and purity any more. The Bible does, though. We dont have to be holy and pure because of arbitrary rules that God sets up to limit and stifle us and keep us from having a good time. That is not Gods agenda. We are to be holy and pure because we serve a holy and pure God. It is an act of spiritual worship. Also, it influences other people. When I began to mature, to hit the wall and began to climb, people watch what I eat and what I dont eat. They watch what I drink and what I dont drink, what I drive and what I dont drive, where I live, where I dont live, etc. Regarding all those things, people are watching me. What did you mean by that? Why did you go there? Why didnt you go there?
Ed Young Jr believes that some of you may be saying that is because I am a pastor. Well, yes, maybe more people might see me in that light but let me tell you something. If you are on the wall, if you are climbing the mountain of maturity, people are watching you. And you have no idea that they are checking you out. They are watching you because they want to see if Christianity is for real.
