Notable and Quotable

Those who try to be as God finally stand before God like children who have been found out and are full of evasions.

    Amen. Humility is the hardest part of Christianity to me. Well, no, I guess it is diciphering the Bible, it’s stories, history, and messaged. But then again, making God and Jesus Christ the center of my life. Ah, then there is the pure thoughts thing. I’ll stick with humility for now. But … it’s a long list of “hards” for me.
