"You can do better than me."

It amazes me how quickly I can swing from thinking I'm hot stuff to being brought low and reminded of how incredibly screwed up I am, usually starting with the arrogance I've crowned myself with moments before. The key, then, is to keep from swinging too far into the other extreme and, instead, staying in a healthy in-between of humility and acceptance of God's love and the value He has placed on my soul and my heart.
