Wow, wicked really is a wicked #4 word. Those who have lived life in a wicked #1&3 way are going to approach life very differently from those whose lived #2 wickedly. I’m beginning to feel #6. Regardless of what type of wicked, #1,3,5 or 7, we were, having chosen to live on a different basis, the basis of trusting and relying on God, we are now a #4, though we once may have been an #8, through God’s love, grace, forgiveness and guidance we leave behind our wicked 1,3,5,6 & 7 ways and grow in understanding and service not only to God but also to our fellows. Wicked #4. Whew.
