Contrasts

I've been taught about goodness and godliness so much of my life that I take for granted that everybody thinks like that. As I look around, it seems that not many do. I miss the depths of human nature because of my trained way of thinking. I miss how consumed people are by their human nature, giving no thought to God, others, or even their own conscience. They have lived their lives so long in the patterns of selfishness, pride, and sinfulness that their only inclination is to think like that. Their life's experiences have only served to reinforce their corrupted heart. They are only trained to live like that now. Our worldviews are stark contrasts, and yet we got here the same way. Oh, that the Spirit would send his light!
