“I will be the first to confess that I have too often let my desires run as a spoiled child in the gluttonous pursuit of some rogue agenda that I have skillfully justified as enhancing the greater good, when in fact it enhances nothing more than my greater good. And when I force myself away from the pithy arguments and the reeking pabulum that I have cleverly crafted to justify these actions, I find myself standing toe-to-toe with the very monster that I have so ardently advocated for. And more times than I can tell you, I find myself standing in this place shamed beyond the scope of words to express. And until I submit the barking agenda of my ‘good’ to the ‘greatness’ of God’s character, I will die at the hands of this most horrific cycle.”
