Am I a moral person?
In most areas,
for the most part,
mostly, I am.
(I think.)
But is that like someone thinking they are humble (2 Chronicles 7:14)?
Maybe once you think you are,
it negates the actuality of it.
Do I mostly do the right thing?
Do I act rightly?
Do justly?
Walk humbly with my God (Micah 6:8)?
I would like to think so.
That’s definitely what I try to do
and live like
and be like.
But what would my friends say?
Or my husband say?
What would God say?
Is being mostly good okay (Psalm 32:2)?
Is that enough (1 John 1:8)?
Because sin isn’t just doing something
completely
wrong.
It’s doing
any other variation
of what is
entirely right (1 John 5:17a).
I’m clearly not perfect, and I don’t ever expect to be.
But that’s obvious.
What’s a little bit less clear (I think)
is that, based on that definition,
I’m not as moral as I think I am.
And that
is very
humbling.
