A man is dangerous... passionate... strong... etc. You probably wouldn't recognize it from what normally walks around in a pair of slacks. If a man is the image of the Lion of Judah, how come there are so many lonely women, so many kids with no dads, so few men around?
When you look in your heart, do you see something valiant and dangerous? Or do you see anger, lust, or fear? Most of the time, I feel more fearful than I do fierce. As the line from Braveheart has it, "All men die; few men ever really live." The real life of the average man seems to be miles away from his real desires.
Honestly, how do you see yourself? As a man, are words like strong, passionate, and dangerous words you would choose for yourself? Do you have the "man parts" to stand up and ask your people around you what they think of you as a man? What words are you scared they will use? Many men would love to be William Wallace, the dangerous warrior hero, but the problem is, most men see themselves as Robert the Bruce.
Which are you?
