As I continue in reading "the Good and Beautiful Life" I have come to a part in dealing with vain-glory. This sin is one that seems to be a problem for people stuck on themselves in a worldy way and those who are so spiritual that they find joy in just how more spiritual they are than others may be. So it really gets to the question, "What is our motivation for what we do?" Their suggested exercise is to do five things this week for someone else but trying not to let them know. For example helping kids with their homework, washing someones car, opening the door for someone, and more. I like this exercise and hope that it will become more of a habit than a trial.
