Smudges
Christ enables us to gain a better, purer view of ourselves and others.
Walking to work one morning, I found myself reminiscing over my teenage years—particularly upon Saturday morning chores. Washing windows was one of them. No matter how much I tried—and my mother assured me it was not hard enough—I never got a window spotless on the first pass. Some smudges were always on the other side.
As I thought back to those Saturday mornings, it suddenly struck me: "That smudge thing is no different from the problem that's been troubling me recently."
