Vanishing Goodness

It is hard to stay good all day.  In the Hebrew Scriptures one of the prophets (Hosea) says our piety is like the morning dew that early passes away.  This is me!  I often pray early in the morning and have resolve to be good that day.  I am all fired up!  Then the day unfolds and my resolve weakens, fails, and good intentions become not so good deeds and attitudes.  Hosea has me pegged.  Actually, he was quoting God.  I think I must need a booster shot of piety during the day.  I am weak.  My sister Maureen says I am bad!
