Commitment is crucial. Men must commit in the following three areas…
Be committed to pursuing Christ. Radical dedication to Jesus is the only way. When you commit to Jesus, He commits to you. “I will contend with those who contend with you, and I will save your children.” [Isaiah 49:25 ESV]
You need other men in your life who you can be radically honest with. You need men who bring truth to your life and not just comfort. Men who will encourage but also challenge you. Choose to be surrounded by and committed to other strong men.
Men are the head of the home. Thus, the home is on your head…you are responsible for the condition of your family. Become a skilled leader in your home and succeed there first. Commit to your family or someone else will.

This saying of Jesus forestalls all exaggerated hopes for success. Never let a disciple of Jesus pin his hopes on large numbers. “Few there be…” The rest of the world are many, and will always be many. But they are on the road to perdition (damnation).” [Dietrich Bonhoeffer in The Cost of Discipleship]
“The tongue of the wise makes knowledge acceptable, But the mouth of fools spouts folly.” -Proverbs 15:2
