But I am aware of how the material circumstances of my culture have imprinted something deep in my lizard-brain: I should not have to do hard things.

perhaps one of the most important questions Christians need to ask of ourselves regularly, about many things, is what Marc says here:

Why do I think that? Where did that idea come from?

in a word: Who or what is catechizing us?

But if you inhabit the same culture I do, that means that you will have to push against an impulse. That inner voice that tells you things shouldn’t be hard, is not the voice of wisdom. When that mood begins to rise in you as you deal with the thorns and thistles of this world, ask yourself: Why do I think that? Where did that idea come from?
