The best of intentions is subject to sabotage, often by our own hand. Simply responding to Jesus is a great first step into a life subject to constant change – but only ever a first step. We are all used to seeing bright sunshine suddenly obscured by passing clouds. So with us. We feel full of God’s Spirit and then darkness engulfs us, we struggle and fall. This is the nature of growing into maturity in Christ. The perennial question remains; how much do we want Jesus?
