At church yesterday, I sat in a pew behind a family of grandparents, parents and a sweet little four-year-old girl. During the church service, the four-year-old would move from one side of the pew to the other, sit by her mother, then snuggle into her grandfather, look through the hymnal, play with her little pink purse, open and close it – sit still for a moment, then begin her exploration and movements all over again. She was a well-behaved for a four-year-old – quiet, sweet and would sit and be still as long as she could, when one of the adults would suggest that she do so. She was perfect in her development and behavior for four.
But what if she was still behaving in this manner at the age of 16 – at the age of 30 – at the age of 50? If she was, then we would look at her with pity – concern and wonder why she never grew past the developmental age of 4. Is it a mental disorder – was she not reared properly – does she just like to be an irritation to others – is she selfish and spiteful and just not want to fit in? Does she like to cause disturbances? Was she not taught manners, patience, respect, empathy responsibility, accountability?
This example is an exaggeration because should an adult move about as this child was – clearly something would be terribly wrong. Only today, so many adults are walking around with the internal developmental age of immature children, self-centered, selfish, no accountability, lack of manners, lack of responsibility, etc.
They may on the outside ‘look’ like adults, but inside they are stuck at some underdeveloped developmental stage. I am not referring to our keeping our inner child alive – so we can, at times, run and play and keep our child-like curiosity that keeps us vital though adult life. I am referring to inner turmoil and dysfunction, either because they are weak, were never taught, had dysfunction modeled for them or were not imprinted with the attributes that lead to true inner awareness and maturity to be able to adapt, develop mentally and emotionally to live a fully responsible life to self and others.
They
are the adults walking around who ‘look’ the part, ‘dress’ the part-
even have a job that ‘appears’ the part, but who are not genuine. They
are frauds unto themselves and others and live in internal misery and
harm many others along the way. They are addicted to things, to
substances, to sex, to using others, to creating a false image, to
staying immature, selfish and all about self.
“Me, me, me – it’s mine – I can do what I want to. Leave me alone!” –
are a few of their outward or inward cries. They are stuck in a
developmental stage of childhood with no awareness of self in relation
to others or even to what they are doing to themselves. They are ‘play
acting’ the part of an adult. Many are referred to as narcissist,
pathological, dysfunctional, cluster-B’s, depressives, etc. They use
people, institutions, positions, things, substances – any and whomever
they can, to try to keep their adult in-control facade in tact.
The lack of maturity, accountability, responsibly in many adults today is astounding. They are depressed, anxious, addicted, power- hungry without self-control, hoarders, materialistic, control-freaks, stuff themselves with food, drink, etc. immoral – self-serving – selfish, etc.
Lib/Dem/progressive/ NWO globalists are prime example of developmental dysfunctions. They want everything given to them – power and control over others, just because they say so and think they ‘know’ better. Think the developmental stage of the know- it- all teenager or even the NO! of the toddler. The ‘I want it all for nothing’ – think the toddler to age of five stages. It’s five or six when many of us learn to share, to have empathy, to put others before ourselves, to have genuine compassion. Then there are those trying to be in complete rule and want complete control over the the masses – the little dictator-stage of the two-year-old – and those being controlled want everything for nothing – just like little dependent children.
A world of toddlers stuck in – “NO NO NO” – Three-year-olds – “It’s mine!” – Six-year-olds “Leave me alone! – Teenagers – “I will do what I want to! Stay out of my room!” As a society and as individuals, if we do not develop properly, we create a world of hell and as individuals we will live in internal hell.
God and an upbringing in the ways of the Bible and Christianity define and create a practice of self-awareness to become responsible, accountable for our actions that leads to an internal mature and developed life. Without this development, individually we will live in pain trying to fill the void in ourselves up with things that will not ever spiritual satisfy us. And as a world, we will have what we are seeing in many people now.
It all begins with self and the developmental stages of childhood. this is why the NWO progressive/globalists want control of our children younger and younger to imprint them with controllable dysfunction even perversion, with lack of boundaries for their use and benefit. A person who stays forever a teenager or young adult with no accountability and responsibility to another, who can’t put others before themselves and have empathy and patience will not be a whole, internally satisfied human being. There will always be the unrest of the four-year-old inside. Sure, there is a positive side to being a child-at- heart then there is a very negative almost demonic side to never maturing properly.
Nurturing and caring for our inner child and being mature and accountable to others is an internal balance.
‘Acting’ the part isn’t genuinely being or living the part.
Bring a child up in the ways of the Bible. church/God and it will serve him for all of his days.
