The Automatic Justification of Patterns
Updated: Sep 12

The Soul Justifieth it's Flesh. When we habitually do things to the degree that they become habits that we no longer find to be a wrong in ourselves. We've reached a point of self justification toward the habit as the person we are. We've allowed(excused) the process, or pattern to take hold of our behaviors. We no longer enable ourselves the correction inherent in processing out the behavior. (Example, road rage) Most people who practice this find it acceptable to point rage towards another for a minor mistake. The "Habit" (Alter: for a later blog) has been formed as disgust towards another to self gratify the anger. When this happens the correct response is praying for the person that you may have felt wronged by. This adjusts behavior to wishing them wisdom and understanding, v.s. maybe wishing that they cause an accident with another. This whole process reforms the entire gratification of self, and replaces what could have been a prayer ending in disaster for innocent people. The action then lends itself to the good of the other in learning and their habit reformation, further to the lessening of anger towards them as a whole. We attack the root of evil with good, so that the root is able to find itself good soil and stop taking nutrients from the bad. Conceptually this always moves the direction of evil towards good, it places good at the front of the path and asks that direction be upheld through God.
Self Gratification: Being utterly convinced you are justified by the things you do.
