What is your definition of a Man?
Article: By Kendall Ficklin
The chart below states some of the differences between a male and a man.
Are You A Male Or A Man?
A Man
Males Are Born But Men Are Made
As you can see there are some distinctions between males and men. Being a man is not easy, especially when you understand a man's roles and responsibilities. I was speaking with a brother one day, and he said to me, "Bro, this being a man thing is hard!" I knew exactly where he was coming from. Walking in manhood can be overwhelming because were going through the process of being reshaped, renewed, restored and completely retrained.
Most of us have been operating as males with sprinklings of manhood. For example, some of us may find a good woman, marry her, provide for her financially, sometimes emotionally, and do most things right. After about nine months to a year when she starts "trippin" because we're hanging out with the fellas, that's when we meet the other woman and revert to being a male. You see, a man has emotions but is not ruled by them. So when his wife starts "trippin", he doesn't allow her actions to dictate his reaction. A man understands that he is held accountable by God for the way he treats his wife regardless of the way she may be treating him.
The Making Of A ManGod created man to have dominion, to be a ruler, and to master his environment He created us in the beginning to be totally dependent on Him, He taught us directly. He instructed us and gave us our assignments. So, the making of a man was founded in and through Him. The only way this transition into manhood can take place is that we go back to Him.
1 Corinthians 13:11 states "When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things".
Keys To Becoming A Real ManGod created man to be a Provider, Protector, Cultivator, Visionary, and Leader
Provider: In Genesis 2:15 God put His man, Adam in a garden and gave him his first assignment, to work. Work was given to him to advance the purpose of God. God wanted Adam to have fulfillment, and to enable him to provide for his own needs as well as those for whom he would eventually be responsible for.
Notice that before he gave the man a woman he gave him work. Therefore a man needs work before he takes on a wife. A provider finds a way to supply for his family's need. He plans ahead and anticipates needs before they arise.
Protector: When God put us in the garden to take care of it, not only did he want us to work in it and cultivate it, but he wanted us to also protect it, and all the animals, the plants, and the woman that he put there for us.
We are natural protectors, designed by God to protect everything we are responsible for.
Cultivator: To cultivate means to make something better than it was when you first received it. Look at your woman, how many of us are really cultivating our women?
Single Brothers: You should be cultivating every woman that comes into your circle. They should leave you a better person, NOT Pregnant, or emotionally abused after we've run so much game on them.
Married Men: We have this picture in our minds of what we want our wives to be and when she doesn't measure up to that we blame her. Ask yourself, what have you put into her? What kind of deposits have you made into her spirit? Have you cultivated her to be what you envision? Or what she envisions for herself? Do you know what her goals and dreams are? How are you helping her achieve them? A woman is like a seed, and we are water and light for her. If we pour into her and shine our light on her, she will blossom into a beautiful, compassionate, nurturing, submissive, help mate. Then you can look at her proudly and say "look at what I have cultivated".
Visionary: Proverbs 29:18 says "Where there is no vision the people perish".
To have vision means to conceive something in your mind and then move toward bringing that vision into reality. Every man should have a vision for his life. If he is married, he should have a vision for his family. The vision should include but not limited to Faith, Family, and Finances. We should have short term and long term goals, and they should be attainable.
Most of us don't have a vision for our family and we wonder why our wives and children won't submit to us. Brothers, look at the word submission, the prefix "sub" means under, and mission simply means goal or vision. So submitting is coming under one's goals and vision. Well, brother she won't submit if you don't have a vision for her to submit under.
Leader: Every man is created by God to lead and a man should display leadership characteristics. Some men run away from the responsibility of leadership. They are selfish, only concerned about their own needs and not the needs of others.
Take a look at some leadership characteristics listed below:
Let's start the transition into manhood now!

What is your definition of a Man?

If you ask that question to a group of men you'll hear many different answers depending upon environment and upbringing.
Some may say he is a man when he has reached a certain age, some may say when he has moved out from under mom's roof and has his own car and apartment, and some believe that making a certain amount of money is attaining manhood. None of these things, however, are characteristics of a man. Manhood is a process, a transition from maleness.

IN RESPONSE TO ARTICLE: MOM WHO MADE DAUGHTER STAND ON CORNER
All I have to say is wow ... I'll just remind myself that its a natural human tendency for one to judge what they cannot bring themselves to understand, and that the generation gap may never be resolved in my lifetime.
There are several reasons why children act out, and when they are acting a fool, they are only a reflection of the modeling behavior of adults. It is my opinion that if grown folks are going to be angry at kids for their behavior, that their anger should be redirected towards the fact that more men and women will pop into the life of a child to steer them into the wrong direction then will pop into the life of a child to positively nurture their capacity to prosper. I think the best example of this is recently hearing a pimp interviewed from jail about why he chose girls at such a young age to trick for him. His response was that it is addicting how easy it is that the mind of a young girl or boy can be shaped and molded.
Maybe its just me & my opinion of enjoying my time spent w/the youth more-so then time spent w/adults simply b/c I deal w/less hang-ups, projected negativity from just being stuck in their self-defeating ways, and baseless judgments from being here on earth longer and developing a familiar (although not necessarily healthy) way of organizing thoughts, and lastly b/c I become hopeful for the future by looking in their eyes.
In my experience, the more mentally and spiritually "healthy" adults involved in the life of a youth, the better. I like what the mom in the below post did, b/c of its communicative implications (kids are very responsive to communication - something that grown folks in America don't do very well ... we can react physically, scapegoat, holla and play the blame game very well, but when it comes to effective communication and self testimony, we're lacking big time). And if you're an adult who actually believes that you're supposed to challenge/influence kids, but they're not supposed to challenge/influence you b/c "you're the adult", well its a mutually reciprocal relationship. All too often I hear adults blaming their own kids for all their adult stress and problems in life as if the child asked to be born. How unfortunate this is because parents will rarely have relationships with other human beings here on earth who will love them more unconditionally then their own children, although teens may not show this type of affection very often.
Until I meet, research, read about or hear about at least a fourth of the kids that are as screwed up as various adults, I hold the opinion that the adults, not the kids are the problem...
