this is a great point, and ties into the emphasis in White Magik as being applied to the self, and the seeking of the Creator, and not into manipulating/changing externals. One then strays into Gray Magik, and then into Black.
one thing I have observed is this: when does Encouragement, Enthusiasm, and Passion stray into the realms of proselytisation?
