None of us can live up to the ideal. George Verwer challenges us to put away the pretending and in brokenness and repentance come to the light, to the Cross. His advice: (1) Don't harden our hearts, not even on minor points, and (2) Repent, turn to Christ, and be cleansed of our faults.
What a wonderful look at pseudo-selves! Fascinating.
