I don’t really think it’s about strength, because people have very little in and of themselves (I’m speaking spiritually here).

There’s a song the bullet point of which is the redeemed are those who fall down and get up.

I also think of how the Lord said that folks needed to enter the Kingdom like little children, something I’ve thought a lot about. What do little children do effortlessly that older children do not?

I put it to you that they trust their parents.

It’s as if your proverbial Saint is talking to the Lord expressing their bewilderment about all the hard things that “teenager humans” around them bring up, and whatever we ask the Lord can say: “Yes, that is a conundrum; but, my Son took care of all of that when He suffered and died and rose again, I’ve said it really works, this salvation thing ... do you trust me?”

Every time, every protest, every question He can answer: “Do you trust me?”

His children will.

It’s the real undoing of the fall, where the serpent managed to convince our parents that YHVH was holding out on them, that they shouldn’t trust Him even though they’d known Him intimately literally their whole lives (and THAT was the knowledge they had that could have prevented the fall). From then on the Lord kept moving people back closer to Himself, for trust that leads to obedience is a good sort of obedience. And it all ultimately led to the Cross.

The other day I observed on Pinterest that people who consider themselves morally superior to God, what I’d call being a spiritual teenager, will very likely choose Hell because of it.
