It's kinda scary to realize, ultimately, that we're to obey what we know is the truth – there's this major, major temptation to lower our standard and compare ourselves to the world, as opposed to the scripture, and say, "Oh I'm not as bad as they are/I'm already good enough", which thus far has been my personal bad habit, or pitfall, also, in a life not that different from a secular person's.

You have an interesting topic for your upcoming post, I'll say; I'm looking forward to the privilege of reading it soon.
