Sometimes, when I need a good talk, I call my dad, because I know I'll get it.
I was talking to him about compromise, and how I knew there were things in my life I needed to maybe address... and he said this (Dad, I know these maybe aren't your exact words, but it was all your idea!)

"Do not try to find the legalistic compromises, for you will find evil everywhere if you look. Instead, bind your heart to God's, abiding in Him, and the rest will follow. For when you are that rooted in Him, the choices you are making will be made with a heart that desires to obey Him out of love, and not out of an obligation to follow some written code."
