Personal U-Turns

 One of the strange things I find in ministry is that people will sin, willfully, belligerently, deviously, repeatedly -- and it seems to matter nothing to them. But come their deathbed -- or come a conviction of sin -- perhaps a very long time after -- and there may be a complete, passionate reversal in the way they see it. What is strange about this is: why didn't they see it when they did it? And if it suddenly matters now, did it in fact matter all along?
