Augustine confessed, “Make me pure Lord, but not yet!”
As much as I am opposed to much of Augustinian theology – I think I am more like him than I would like to admit.
I don’t want to grow up. I don’t want to make the effort. I’m happy living like a pig in swill. Maybe one day it’ll catch up with me. But today I feel good, I thank God for my happiness and I put off the inevitable as I pray “Make me pure Lord, but not yet.”
