Diary of Boys To Men

DIARY OF BOYS TO MEN WHEN WE BECAME A MAN: Entrant into the promise land of adulthood Where the wanderings cease and building begins Where that unstable thing in us solidifies Where the irresponsible become committed Where you rise up to confront enemies, Subdue territories and attain property by conquest Because the worrier has now become the warrior The promise land is where we keep our promises-in-hand, To ourselves, to our wives and to our seeds, Where our words can be blindly trusted Because God keeps His promises over His gods! WHEN WE SORT FOR EDUCATION: Despite his handicaps, David rose to the top Somehow, he learned about responsibility In those fields while alone with God So, give me responsibilities else I die If not now, the inevitable death of the tomorrow Not the timely death of 120 apportion to human RESPONSIBILITY AND BOLDNESS: Give me a lamb and I will rescue her From the Lion and the Bear in the woods Decisiveness and quick action is in the promise land In this land, manhood requires leadership And leadership requires commitment to lead Only way to be fit a man coming from the boyhood journey -- Be a god after God's own heart, You will be separated so you can be operated on and certified.
