Ha, join the club.

Actually, I think we should be card carrying members. Still, such realizations are not all bad. They keep us humble, and allow us to realize both our dependence upon others and, ultimately, our frailty as human beings under God. This comment is getting way too complex for blogger but, to sum it up, it's good when we reach the point in our spiritual growth where we can say together with Paul in 2 Cor. 3:4-5:
"Such confidence we have through Christ toward God. Not that we are adequate in ourselves to consider anything as coming from ourselves, but our adequacy is from God who also made us adequate as servants of a new covenant."
Paul was, of course, speaking specifically of his apostolic ministry, but it is also clear that he derived his confidence in all things from his standing in the Holy Spirit.

That's enough out of me. I'm not a certified commentor, you know.
