“If God wanted a world filled with saints, He never would have created adolescence.” - Susan Beth Pfeffer

Decryption of quote

"If God wanted a world filled with saints, He never would have created adolescence."

Imagine a world where everyone was perfect, where every individual embodied the qualities of a saint. It would be a world devoid of growth, of learning, of challenges. It would be a stagnant world, lacking the vibrancy and diversity that adolescence brings.

Adolescence is a time of transition, a period of growth and self-discovery. It is a time when individuals are faced with new experiences, new emotions, and new challenges. It is a time of testing boundaries, pushing limits, and questioning beliefs.

God, in His infinite wisdom, knew that in order for His creation to truly flourish, there needed to be a period of growth and development. He knew that in order for individuals to become saints, they first needed to navigate the tumultuous waters of adolescence.

Adolescence is a time of mistakes, of failures, of setbacks. It is a time when individuals are faced with temptations and distractions. It is a time when they are tested, when their faith is challenged, when their beliefs are questioned.

But it is also a time of resilience, of strength, of perseverance. It is a time when individuals learn from their mistakes, when they grow from their failures, when they overcome their setbacks. It is a time when they develop empathy, compassion, and understanding.

God knew that in order for individuals to become saints, they needed to go through the trials and tribulations of adolescence. He knew that it was through these challenges that they would emerge stronger, wiser, and more compassionate.

So the next time you find yourself struggling through the tumultuous waters of adolescence, remember that it is all part of God's plan. It is through these challenges that you will grow, that you will learn, that you will become the saint that God intended you to be.

Embrace the journey, embrace the challenges, and trust in God's plan. For it is through adolescence that you will truly discover who you are meant to be.
