The easy way and the right way

Yeah, I took the easy way. I was supposed to be working on homework, but I was goofing around. I was asked how my homework was coming, and I said I was working on it. I wasn't in the mood to get into a discussion over my homework, so I said I had been working on it. Seems innocent enough...but it's not.

Not only have I been thinking about it a lot, but I know that it interferes with my relationship with God and my wife. It's also kind of strange that doing the right thing AFTER doing the wrong thing is more difficult than just saying "I'm NOT working on my homework, but I plan to in a few minutes," and I also have to deal with the repercussions.

I guess the good news is that:
A) it wasn't pertaining to something important
B) I did come clean

The bad news is that Satan can use that against me, to make me feel guilty and to try to get me to do it again. It also makes it harder for Casey to trust me.

That just goes to show that you can feel like you're doing really well, and that's just when you're the most vulnerable. God humble me and help me follow your will.
