We live in a fallen evil world. Because of sin, the natural drift of the current of this world is downward. If we’re honest, the darkness and evil isn’t just out there; we feel it in us from time to time too.  The natural response is to resort to our own resources and efforts to make it — work harder, go to more therapy, be nicer, change schools or find new friends. All of these things may be appropriate, but without the wind of the Spirit it just leads to futility and exhaustion.  We need to be filled with the Sprit.  We need to be intoxicated Christians.
