Tu adolescencia y tus 20 s ser n aprovechados al m ximo si los conviertes en un tiempo de santificaci n. Incluso ahora puedes dar pasos audaces para superar el pecado y abrazar la justicia. La fe cristiana se levanta y cae sobre este hecho notable: Dios se hizo hombre. Jesucristo tuvo que pasar de ser un beb a un adulto, de la inmadurez a la madurez. Incluso tuvo que someterse a sus padres y avanzar en sabidur a, estatura y favor tanto con Dios como con los hombres. Avanza es mi llamado a los adolescentes y j venes adultos para que aprendan de Jes s y hagan de estos a os un tiempo de preparaci n deliberada para el resto de la vida. Les ruego que utilicen estos a os no para centrarse primero en los logros externos que podr an dar forma al mundo, sino en los logros internos que formar n su car cter. En resumen, te pido que seas como Jes s.
