The key to receiving Christ's Gospel is a change in the corrupt heart. Whoever wants to accept that Gospel regards his own wisdom as foolishness and his own righteousness as a filthy garment. He gives God alone the glory in everything and becomes a fool before the world. -- C. F. W. Walther, *God Grant It!* p. 313
I call this the Great Challenge. To empty myself of my wants to allow Jesus Christ to take over. A constant battle.
