There's a fight in the world between good and evil. I used to think you could apply that principle to people as well, that there are good people in the world and there are bad people. There are also those who are inbetween, but if you're not actively on the good side, you could probably be classed as heading on the wrong path. I now see how simple and wrong this is.
In the end, we're all bad people. The amazing part is when we get over our taintedness and let the light of the Gospel shine through. Life is not a science. People are not a science. They are not to be categorized and disected. In the end, we're all messed up; we're all the thing we hate most; we're all our own worst enemy. Praise God that he works in us to make us more like him. It's just taking the step and asking... wanting.
I think that's what I've just rediscovered. And it's mind-blowing.
