We often presume we are the heroes of our story; we are the ones who do good, who respond to God and Jesus in positive ways. In many ways, that is true. But when we look deeply and are truly honest, we know that each of us has times when we might put ourselves or our desires first, rather than those of our Creator. There are times we use our resources to feed our own appetites rather than honor God. And yet, in Jesus there are both forgiveness and a call to be better.
