How do I increase my faith further? I feel like I've made a lot of progress since I've become a Christian. But I want to go further.
Specifically I want to talk about good works and the good faith behind them. I do a lot more good things now than I did before, but I struggle with the pure good will and faith that should be behind it. For example, a few days ago, I helped a blind man who was wandering in the road to his destination. But afterwards, I felt that there was something wrong with what I had done, Like I had expected something for it. I never told anyone about it, but I couldn't help but feel like my pride was at my throat. Even by talking about it in this post sort of feels like I'm trying to show off somehow.
How do I remove this lingering disingenuous part of myself? How do I turn "fake goodwill" into "true goodwill"?
