Young people, experiencing peer pressure, often defer to the "my parents won't let me" or the "church won't let me" excuse. One young man, who played baseball, was pressured to play on a Friday night. The coaches pressured his parents to persuade him, who replied said, "It's totally up to him." The young man, on his own, told his team members and his fellow players that it was his own decision. There comes a time in all of our lives when we cannot pass the buck, but must totally rely on God to direct our steps.

Ecclesiastes 11:9 warns us that all of our behavior will eventually be evaluated.
