I’ve been listening to unhappy people this week: people that
have sinned, have hurt others and have hurt themselves.
It’s refreshing when someone gets it; when they realize that
their own choices and desires took them places they do not want to be, and that
these patterns need to be changed. It’s a good thing to see correctly the
relationship between cause and effect, between actions and consequences.
But it’s even better when it dawns that our most significant
sins are the inevitable consequence of refusing to take the Lord at his word.
