I heard quote recently that caught my attention: “The enemy of great isn’t bad. The enemy of great is good.” Intrigued? I am.
I think I settle for good too often, but it can be a hard concept to grasp. How do I know when to deny something good to wait for something great? How do I know what good things I should get rid of to make room for great things? Is it ever possible for me to know? Is it something I really need to know? I consistently pray that Christ would align my will with His and that he would allow me to enjoy his greatness, but too often selfishness, greed, and an eagerness to grasp good things get in the way.
