Freshly Sane

This just in from my friend, Dave McCarty.

"How can I tell when I'm indifferent to Jesus? When I don't like dependency, weakness, feeling helpless, embarrassed. When my flesh vibrates to strong, together, confident. When I begin to obsess over my next car, vacation, purchase, or ministry strategy. Because, deep down, I evidently believe that something different or new, will bring me happiness... But new circumstances never solve my problem. And so the nicest, sweetest, kindest thing He ever does for me, is to send His Spirit and freshly convict me of my sin of independence and self-confidence. Ahhh, 'tis so sweet to be freshly sane again."
