I’ve never met anyone who became instantly mature.  It’s a painstaking process that God takes us through, and it includes such things as waiting, failing, losing, and being misunderstood–each calling for extra doses of perseverance.

Finally, brethren, farewell.  Become complete.  Be of good comfort, be of one mind, live in peace; and the God of love and peace will be with you.

If I were giving a young man advice as to how he might succeed in life, I would say to him, pick out a good father and mother, and begin life in Ohio.
