Cheater Cheater

"For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world and forfeits his soul? Or what shall a man give in return for his soul?" – Matthew 16:26

We all know people consumed with winning. They don't care who, or how they cheat, so long as they come out on top. In fact, they compromise and turn a blind eye to ethics, principles and morals for the sake of the win. It seems as though the way of the world these days, has more to do with the scam than it does with integrity. 

Tony Dungy is challenging young people to become "uncommon" young men and women. To win God's way. To find victory through strength in character. And as much as I have enjoyed his book "Uncommon," I got thinking about the sad truth of the book's title.  How telling is it, that the world has declined to a point where values such as honesty, ethics, integrity and character are considered uncommon.

I fear that my prayer for a world in which those things are "common," is a distant dream that I will only see on the other side.
