And just reading certain passages of scripture can bring me to tears.

Many years ago, when I was first in church, I felt guilty about reading certain things like that. But, I forged ahead anyway. The knowledge and understanding that these things brought me made it worth it. I would sift through a dumspter for a few diamonds, no problem. The problem is when you actually like digging through the trash more than you want the diamonds in it. What is your motive? Are you really digging for diamonds or do you like the smell of rotton vegetables? Motive is everything.
