I love what St. Augustine says, and I think I'll add this to my sig.... "Love God and do what you please"....which assumes that if you love God then what pleases you will be the love of His law and the laboring to live accordingly to it, by grace.

I'm not sure how you get the above statement out of my saying that we should have standards in our lives, but you are right, I think we agree but just saying it differently.
The Holy Ghost leads and guides us into all truth, but He won't do it all for us. We have to set limits for ourselves.
And I like that quote, and it says pretty much the same that I'm saying.
