The imperceptible arc of transformation

This blog is dedicated to transformation, and Dan Edelen has written a fine article at Cerulean Sanctum on accepting the speed (or apparent lack thereof) of its progress:

Sanctification is a process; we "are being transformed," not we "are transformed immediately." The light of the Holy Spirit flicks on in that place of our formerly dead spirit and we are justified, but that soul of ours is still in need of a heap o' work. Years of it, in fact.

That's a message worth remembering.
