Jesus Questions: Why do you call me good?

Mark 10:18  And Jesus said to him, "Why do you call me good? No one is good except God alone.

Are you good? For most people this is a pretty easy questions for them to answer: "Of course I'm good." Isn't it interesting that our standard of goodness is always low enough that we manage to fit in it? Jesus' standard of goodness was God. I think we may need to raise our standard.
