If you have ever been...

If you have ever been to a paint store, then you have seen those charts of all the colors. For example, if you want white paint, there are probably twenty or more shades of white, from pure white to off-white to eggshell and a whole lot more. But what is interesting to note is that if you put those color samples side by side, as you look at each one and then the next, it is almost impossible to see any difference. But all of a sudden, when you get down the line and compare that color with what you started with, you notice that a big change has taken place. You can start off with pure white, but suddenly you have gray in front of you. Jesus calls us to live lives that are pure white. But we have a tendency to keep slowly drifting away from that.
