The Men Within (ePub)

The Men Within is a collection of intimate thoughts, prayers, and letters that represent the struggles of the man, the good man, and the godly man that dwell within me and a sharing of insight into how they transition from one to another.

I believe that we all have had situations when we have struggled between doing what is right or wrong, being generous or selfish, demonstrating initiative or procrastination, being caring or obtuse, and being forgiving or exacting punishment, even if one should dare to love. The struggle will always be there when such challenging issues arise to trouble us. The concern is not if the issue will get resolved, but which facet of a person will respond to resolve the issue at hand. Will it be the one that wants to fulfill the desires of the here and now, the one that wants to do the right thing for family, friends, and community, or the one that has the desire for every person to consider the decisions that affect life after this one?

With the facets of an individual transitioning from one to another with troublesome issues of anger, disappointment, frustration, stress, pain, love, happiness, deception, and admiration, sometimes there is no resolve that the individual can arrive at other than taking those things back to the one who created all things, is in all things, and can reconcile all things.
